DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The overall mission of the Asian American Network for Cancer Awareness, Research and Training (AANCART) is to reduce cancer health disparities by conducting community-based participatory education, training, and research by, for, and with Asian Americans in Sacramento, CA (also serves as Headquarters); San Francisco, CA; Los Angeles, CA; Seattle, WA; Hawaii (state); and Houston, TX. This Network is a national one, comprised of seven NCI cancer centers and their associated universities, the California Department of Health Services, Chinese Community Health Care Association, and the Hmong Women's Heritage Association. Cumulatively, this Network serves nearly 50 percent of all Asian Americans. Consistent with RFA-CA-05-012, AANCART's deliverables are: (1) Sustenance of a highly interactive Network among AANCART regions to catalyze cancer education for Asian Americans; (2) Establishment of research training programs that address Asian American cancer health disparities; and (3) Process and impact data to document the extent to which specific cancer health disparities are reduced among Cambodians, Chinese, Filipino, Hmong, Korean, and Vietnamese. Examples of Asian American disparities to be addressed include those associated with smoking-related lung and hepatitis B-induced liver cancers, low breast and cervical cancer screening rates, and emerging cancer threats posed by acculturation, diet, and insufficient ethnically-specific representation in clinical trials. Aims will be achieved through both Network-wide and regional activities by the AANCART Steering Committee and involving Asian American-oriented community-based organizations, Cancer Information Service staff, and other supportive entities tied together through past histories of collaboration and memoranda of understanding and letters of support. Universities associated with AANCART, the California Department of Health and the Chinese Community Health Plan are committed to additional support for AANCART.

描述（由申请人提供）： 亚裔美国人癌症意识、研究和培训网络（AANCART）的总体使命是通过在加利福尼亚州萨克拉门托（也作为总部）、加利福尼亚州旧金山弗朗西斯科、加利福尼亚州洛杉矶、华盛顿州西雅图、夏威夷（州）和德克萨斯州休斯顿开展由亚裔美国人参与的社区参与式教育、培训和研究，减少癌症健康差异。 该网络是一个全国性的网络，由七个NCI癌症中心及其相关大学、加州卫生服务部、中国社区卫生保健协会和苗族妇女遗产协会组成。 累计起来，该网络为近50%的亚裔美国人提供服务。 与RFA-CA-05-012一致，AANCART的可交付成果是：（1）维持AANCART地区之间高度互动的网络，以促进亚裔美国人的癌症教育;（2）建立研究培训计划，解决亚裔美国人癌症健康差异;和（3）处理和影响数据，以记录特定癌症健康差异在越南人、中国人、菲律宾人、苗族人、韩国人、越南人。 需要解决的亚裔美国人差异的例子包括与吸烟相关的肺癌和乙型肝炎诱发的肝癌，乳腺癌和宫颈癌筛查率低，以及文化适应，饮食和临床试验中种族特异性代表不足造成的新癌症威胁。目标将通过AANCART指导委员会的网络范围和区域活动来实现，并涉及面向亚裔美国人的社区组织，癌症信息服务工作人员和其他支持实体，这些实体通过过去的合作历史和谅解备忘录和支持信联系在一起。 与AANCART、加州卫生部和华人社区健康计划有关的大学承诺为AANCART提供额外的支持。
