Description:Cancer continues to be a concern for the Northern Plains American Indian (NPAI) population. Although great strides have been made in education and awareness, early prevention and detection, culturally relevant approaches, and survivorship. NPAI communities continue to suffer from some of the highest rates of cancer and cancer deaths compared to both other Native and non-Native populations. With continuing support from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Great Plains Tribal Chairmen’s Health Board (GPTCHB) the Northern Plains Comprehensive Cancer Control Program has joined with partners from Great Plains tribes, tribal leadership, Indian Health Services, states, universities, and many other cancer control stakeholders to continue working together towards a common goal of strengthening collaborative efforts to prevent cancers and increase access to quality cancer care services from diagnosis through survivorship or end of life.
A Project of the Northern Plains Cancer Coalition.
Support provided by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC Grant #U55-CCU824797) to make this plan possible.
