Topic: Cancer and Climate Change

  • Promotional Flier   HERE

Climate change is increasingly recognized as a threat to both environmental and public health, with potential impacts across the cancer continuum.

We will discuss how climate change can increase exposures to cancer risk factors, negatively impact food access and quality, disrupt cancer care treatment and exacerbate cancer disparities; as well as explore how cancer coalitions can address climate change in their cancer plan updates and implementation efforts.

Guest Speakers:

  • Gila Neta, PhD, MPP, Program Director with the Implementation Science team in the Office of the Director in the Division of Cancer Control and Population Sciences (DCCPS) at the National Cancer Institute (NCI).
  • Leticia Nogueira, PhD, MPH, Scientific Director of Health Services Research at the American Cancer Society

 

 

The American Cancer Society is a 20-year founding member of the Comprehensive Cancer Control National Partnership (CCCNP). See upcoming CCCNP events on the CCCNP website.

Featured Resources

Increasing Food Security Toolkit

This helpful food security toolkit for CCC coalitions contains resources and recommendations that are aligned with the Whitehouse National Strategy for improving food access and affordability and integrating nutrition into disease management. The prevalence of low food security among people with cancer and their caregivers is much higher than the prevalence in the general population.

Childhood Cancer Tip Sheet

This Tip Sheet is part of a series offered through the CCCNP to assist CCC programs charged with developing, implementing, and evaluating cancer control plans tailored to their state, tribe, or territory jurisdictions. CCC Plans focus coalition efforts on evidence-based interventions (EBIs) that impact cancer prevention and control across the cancer continuum.

Prostate Cancer Tip Sheet

This Tip Sheet is part of a series offered through the CCCNP to assist CCC programs charged with developing, implementing, and evaluating cancer control plans tailored to their state, tribe, or territory jurisdictions. CCC Plans focus coalition efforts on evidence-based interventions (EBIs) that impact cancer prevention and control across the cancer continuum.

Cervical Cancer Screening Tip Sheet

This Tip Sheet is part of a series offered through the CCCNP to assist CCC programs charged with developing, implementing, and evaluating cancer control plans tailored to their state, tribe, or territory jurisdictions. CCC Plans focus coalition efforts on evidence-based interventions (EBIs) that impact cancer prevention and control across the cancer continuum.
