About this study
The Outreach Core (OC) of the Ponce Health Sciences University-Moffitt Cancer Center (PHSU-MCC) Partnership provides community outreach and education to improve cancer screening behaviors in our catchment area populations. The overall goal of the OC is to increase community cancer awareness, community engagement, and participation in cancer research and outreach in our catchment areas. Working closely with other Partnership cores and investigators, the team proposes to elevate and expand its activities to facilitate reciprocal communication between community members and partnership researchers through OC educational activities, training opportunities, supporting participant recruitment efforts, and incorporating the Community Advisory Panel (CAP) feedback on partnership research projects. Together with community members and Partnership researchers, the OC will increase cancer awareness, community engagement, and participation in cancer research in communities served by MCC (in FL) and PHSU (in PR) through the following three Specific Aims:
Aim 1: To develop, deliver, and disseminate cancer education and outreach activities to our catchment area populations. The team will deliver cancer education to communities in PR and FL using evidence-based programs through multiple delivery strategies and reflecting partnership research priorities and topics of interest identified by community members.

Aim 2: To enhance capacity for mutually beneficial research engagement to address cancer health priorities in our catchment areas. The team will facilitate communication between community members and partnership investigators (e.g., CAP Research Corner), support partnership research that is responsive to community needs (translational research), promote community participation in the partnership's research activities/projects, and train researchers and community members in community engagement principles.
Aim 3: To expand the capacity to train community members as lay health promoters to deliver evidence-based cancer education programs in their communities. The team will train community members and community partners/organizations to deliver evidence-based cancer education (e.g., Cancer 101, OC activities) in their local communities.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Cancer CientoUno (101) programBehavioural
The Spanish version of Cancer 101 consists of several modules that address cancer control and prevention, risk factors, early detection and screening guidelines, cancer diagnosis and stages, cancer treatment, cancer and genetics, cancer and chronic disease, patient and caregiver support, HPV, biobanking, and clinical trials. All modules contain a written summary with learning objectives, a PowerPoint presentation, pre- and post-module evaluations with an answer sheet, a glossary, references, and supplemental resources. This program will occur on an ongoing basis.
Latinos y el cáncer/Hablemos de cáncer (Translation in English: Latinos and Cancer/Let's Talk About Cancer)Behavioural
This is a biennial cancer symposium focused on cancer topics important to Hispanic/Latinos. This day-long event includes a plenary session and concurrent sessions where healthcare professionals present educational information about cancer, cancer prevention, early detection methods, and other related topics.
¡Salud! Serie de Charlas (Translation in English: Health! Talk Series)Behavioural
This is an educational and community outreach effort comprised of local charlas (talks) led by Hispanic/Latino healthcare professionals (e.g., the partnership Community Health Educator [CHE], topic experts) who provide education and answer questions about specific cancer topics. The charlas may be conducted in multiple modalities (in person, virtual, hybrid) and may be conducted in English and/or Spanish. At least three events will be held each year in the partnership locations.
Community/Researcher Forum: El Puente (Translation in English: The Bridge).Behavioural
The main goal of the El Puente annual event is to generate dialogue between community members and researchers about cancer treatment and cancer-focused research topics. During El Puente's presentations, researchers present their projects and data results to community members, allowing community members to react to the research, make suggestions, and express concerns.
Lunch and Learn Updated Recommendations Series.Behavioural
This is a virtual podcast that will discuss cancer-related recommendations and guidelines from the United States Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF). The podcasts are pre-recorded, 30 minute long, and will be in English and/or Spanish. This podcast will be hosted by the Outreach Core (OC) CHE, and feature experts who will explain the updated recommendations and active steps that community members and providers can take to facilitate adherence. This activity will begin according to the project timeline
Community Engagement (CE) Training Program for U54 Partnership InvestigatorsBehavioural
This is a series of 2 1/2-day CE workshops designed and delivered up to 20 partnership researchers (including faculty and junior investigators) delivered across four sessions per year (6 to 10 researchers per year). Each session includes two hours of lectures (didactic material) and one hour of practice activities (practical application of the theoretical content). Session topics will include CE: concepts and principles, theoretical roots, levels, and ethics. The OC team will provide educational materials and additional references in each session.
Community Advisory Panels (CAP)Behavioural
These CAPs work closely with the (CHE) to oversee the identification, development, and coordination of the outreach activities; provide advice on the development and implementation of community needs and assessments; provide guidance for recruitment and retention of research participants; and assist in the recruitment for educational events and research and vetting community educational materials and the content of protocols for research projects.
Research CornerBehavioural
The goal is to provide bidirectional communication between the community and researchers to increase CE strategies into cancer disparities research through periodic meetings between community members and researchers to discuss CE strategies, research recruitment strategies, dissemination strategies, among others.
Community-based Training Program (CBTP) for Community Leaders and Stakeholders.Behavioural
The CBTP provides the opportunity to acquire knowledge to impart cancer prevention education (Cancer 101) and skills necessary to disseminate educational information (hands-on experiences through OC educational activities). This training will be provided in-person and remotely to increase participation. This activity will begin according to the project timeline.
Integrate Cancer 101 into the Stakeholders ProgramsBehavioural
This program will offer stakeholders a no-cost workshop of three credit hours to increase cancer prevention education among Hispanic/Latinos. CMEs will be provided virtually to increase participation. This activity will begin according to the project timeline.
Community Engagement (CE) Training Program for Lay Community MembersBehavioural
A series of two-day CE workshops designed and delivered to 30 lay community members over a four-year period (6 to 10 participants per year). The proposed CE workshops includes: 1) CE principles, 2) cancer prevention education principles, and 3) community-based promotion strategies for cancer prevention. This activity will begin according to the project timeline.
