Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Native Outreach: A Report to American Indian, Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian Communities This monograph presents the National Cancer Institute's (nci) research efforts in Native American communities reported primar ily to community leaders, health professionals, and lay health workers. As a result of targeted efforts, eight cooperative agree ments were funded to design, develop, implement, and evaluate interventions in cancer prevention and control. These'studies are hisroric because they represent the first concerted nationwide effort by nci to address the cancer prevention and control needs of Native Americans. Although these studies were funded to enhance cancer prevention and control research and programs in Native American communities, they also can be used as valuable models for encouraging Native American community leaders, health professionals, and lay health workers to implement these types of studies in their native communities. For several years, nci has taken steps to reduce the impact of cancer in Native American communities. In 1989, nci invited inves rigators to apply for cooperative agreements to assess, with nci's assistance, the effectiveness of cancer prevention and control inter vention strategies in Native American populations, defined as American Indians, Alaska Natives, and Native Hawaiians. Two Requests for Applications (rfas) were issued. Subsequently, nci funded eight studies: four under the Avoidable Mortality From Cancer in Native American Populations rea and four under the Primary Prevention of Cancer in Native American Populations rea. These studies were conducted between 1989 and 1996. This mono graph documents findings from seven of the eight studies. (for this monograph, references to all three Native American subpopulations are indicated by the term Native Americans unless otherwise noted.)
