为了有效地缩小多种族、医疗服务不足人群的癌症差异，必须通过坚实的社区-学术伙伴关系和以社区为基础的参与性研究（CBPR）共同制定干预措施。坦帕湾社区癌症网络（TBCCN）的建立是为了与社区非营利组织、宗教团体、社区卫生中心、地方媒体以及成人扫盲和教育组织合作，确定并实施干预措施，以解决当地的癌症差异。TBCCN的活动和研究工作旨在解决坦帕湾地区不同社区与癌症控制和预防相关的关键信息和获取问题。这些努力包括跨文化健康促进、筛查和认识活动，以及植根于社区并以CBPR方法为指导的应用研究项目。本文将这些活动描述为建立伙伴关系的例子，以积极影响癌症差异，促进社区健康，并为基于社区的研究伙伴关系奠定基础。
To effectively attenuate cancer disparities in multiethnic, medically underserved populations, interventions must be developed collaboratively through solid community–academic partnerships and driven by community-based participatory research (CBPR). The Tampa Bay Community Cancer Network (TBCCN) has been created to identify and implement interventions to address local cancer disparities in partnership with community-based nonprofit organizations, faith-based groups, community health centers, local media, and adult literacy and education organizations. TBCCN activities and research efforts are geared toward addressing critical information and access issues related to cancer control and prevention in diverse communities in the Tampa Bay area. Such efforts include cross-cultural health promotion, screening, and awareness activities in addition to applied research projects that are rooted in communities and guided by CBPR methods. This article describes these activities as examples of partnership building to positively affect cancer disparities, promote community health, and set the stage for community-based research partnerships.
