CHDI’s Latino outreach efforts are growing, with plans to develop an ongoing Latino Program. The overarching goal of this program would be to provide sustainable cancer outreach, education, and research in partnership with Latino communities within UWCCC’s service area. The program objectives are:
- Promote healthy behaviors and cancer awareness
- Increase the effectiveness of culturally relevant cancer education within Latino communities
- Increase Latino cancer patients’ access to timely and appropriate screening, treatment, supportive care, and clinical trials
Nuestra Comunidad, Nuestro Futuro
Nuestra Comunidad, Nuestro Futuro calls attention to the strengths, health challenges and cancer concerns of the Latinx communities in southcentral Wisconsin.
