SOLUTIONS Cancer Resource Center is proud to announce its partnership with the National Institutes of Health (NIH)’s All of Us Research Program through its Community Advocate Network (CAN).
All of Us is a large research program working to enroll one million or more participants across the U.S., including people and communities who have historically been left out of medical research. The goal is to collect and share data to fuel new insights into human health, thereby accelerating health and medical research that enables individualized prevention, treatment, and care.
Community Advocate Network organizations support All of Us by:
- helping advance the overall All of Us mission;
- advocating for diversity in biomedical research and describing how All of Us accomplishes that goal;
- encouraging enrollment into the program where appropriate within their respective member communities to help create diverse representation in All of Us; and
- making investigators aware of opportunities to use All of Us data in their research.
At SOLUTIONS we heartily support the All of Us mission. We are committed to being a strong advocate for under-served communities, focusing on educating and empowering others with information aimed at prevention, early detection and assistance. We also act as a liaison to bridge the communication gap between the doctor and patient. With our participation in supporting All of Us, we are able to bring this important message to members of our community and to ensure individuals have access to this source of empowerment.
