Community Gateway to Health Study

Community Gateway to Health Study

The goal of this study is to evaluate the impact of a multi-level intervention on cancer prevention and social determinants of health outcomes. This partnership between academic and community-based researchers aims to link community health centers and communities in ways that maximize both civic engagement and participation in cancer control care. The system-level intervention consists of two components: (1) provision of community health center systems-level tools for cancer screening (breast, cervical, colorectal) and tobacco cessation treatment gaps; and (2) digital access screening and navigation. These interventions will be delivered via usual care.

Study participants include community health center and community partner staff participating in surveys and interviews about the implementation of the intervention.

Inclusion Criteria:

• Community health center staff or community partners
• Age 18 or older

Exclusion Criteria:

• Under 18

Patients will not be individually recruited for the study because the intervention is being offered as part of routine care.
