In the Great Plains Area (GPA) of South Dakota, North Dakota, Nebraska, and Iowa, the AI/AN population suffers from among the most significant public health disparities in the United States. GPTLHB can successfully address cancer disparities and advance cancer prevention by implementing the Great Plains Comprehensive Cancer Control Program (GPCCCP).
GPCCCP will accomplish its goals using evidence-based interventions (EBIs) and strategies to promote the primary prevention of cancer; support cancer early detection efforts; address the needs of cancer survivors; and promote health equity.
Comprehensive Cancer Control Program
We have supported the creation of the Great Plains Area Cancer Coalition (GPA-CC) to develop and implement a cancer control plan across the cancer continuum.
