This funding opportunity seeks to support the Comprehensive Partnerships to Advance Cancer Health Equity (CPACHE) Program. The CPACHE Program develops and maintains comprehensive, long-term, and mutually beneficial partnerships between institutions serving underserved health disparity populations and underrepresented students (ISUPSs) and NCI-designated Cancer Centers (CCs). The institutions in each partnership are expected to work collaboratively to: (1) increase the cancer research and cancer research education capacity of the ISUPSs; (2) promote the diversity of the cancer research workforce; (3) improve the effectiveness of CCs in developing and sustaining research programs focused on cancer health disparities and increase the number of investigators and students conducting cancer health disparities research; and (4) develop and implement cancer-related outreach and education initiatives that benefit the surrounding underserved communities.
