Cancer is complex. It affects people differently. Not everyone benefits the same to improvements made in prevention and treatment. Many are working to address this but are not always connected. CCSN is working to bridge the gap between community and science. This project is one of three approaches to be this bridge.
The Collaborative Work Groups will work in two phases. Phase One will create multi-sector Collaborative Work Groups across Wisconsin to develop a transdisciplinary understanding of a topic associated with breast and/or lung cancer disparities and design an integrated solution. In Phase Two, these solutions will be implemented by teams resulting in a reduction in breast and lung
cancer disparities.
We are working together with a shared value and deep understanding across community and science

Background
The overall goal of the proposed Collaborative Work Group initiative is to build teams of diverse community and academic perspectives to develop and implement integrated approaches to address breast and lung cancer disparities in Wisconsin that learn together, create collectively, and overcome issues of trust and power imbalances.
The initiative will build collaborative work groups in up to six communities to meaningfully impact one of the topics identified by the AHW Design Team to reduce breast and/or lung cancer disparities: environment, tobacco use, stress, and healthcare access and quality.
