Description:
The Cancer Center Community Advisory Board consists of thoughtful leaders, patient advocates, and other cancer stakeholders who live or work in Iowa. The board provides input and feedback to ensure that Holden’s community outreach, engagement and research activities are informed, promote health equity, and are responsive to the needs of Iowa’s communities. The exchange of information and ideas between researchers, cancer center staff, and advisory board members ensures that values and cultural differences among persons and communities are respected. An active and representative Community Advisory Board at the Holden Comprehensive Cancer Center is vital to reducing the burden of cancer in Iowa’s communities.
