With the support of the American Cancer Society (ACS), the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and the Kaiser Permanente Center for Health Research (KPCHR), the Atlanta East District of the AME Church developed tailored colorectal cancer screening messages and an action plan for sharing the messages. Church members, healthcare professionals, and other partners came together to create locally relevant and culturally appropriate screening messages based on scientific health information.
Project Summary
This project aimed to empower AME church members in Atlanta, Georgia to develop and share tailored messages that would raise awareness about CRC screening and increase screening rates. The project also sought to establish and strengthen partnerships between the AME community, local healthcare systems, and other community organizations through the development of a collaborative community action plan.
