The South Carolina Cancer Prevention and Control Research Network (SC-CPCRN) is currently one of nine Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)  Collaborating Centers working to reduce cancer-related health disparities among disenfranchised and medically underserved populations by advancing dissemination and implementation (D&I) science. In strong partnership with the South Carolina Cancer Alliance, federally qualified health centers, and other academic, clinical, community, and faith-based partners, the SC-CPCRN uses evidence-based approaches for the D&I of efficacious cancer prevention and control messages, guidelines, and interventions.

The SC-CPCRN’s aims are to:

• Disseminate, implement, and evaluate efficacious, multi-level, multi-site, public health cancer prevention and control interventions.
• Engage community and clinical partners in training and technical assistance.
• Increase the capacity of community and clinical partners to more effectively reach underserved, minority, and rural populations.
