Our mission is to disseminate cancer information and education to Greater Bay Area communities, with a particular emphasis on reaching medically underserved populations. the communities we serve to understand their needs, provide information, and learn more about what we do not know.
In order to address health inequalities, partnering directly with communities affected by disparities gives the Stanford Cancer Institute the best chance of identifying strategies to reverse these trends. Community stakeholders, individuals and organizations, are critical for understanding the needs of the constituents they represent. They are instrumental towards identifying potential strategies to address cancer disparities and implement research.
