SPEECH: Synergistic Partnership for Enhancing Equity in Cancer Health.

Overview

Minority populations disproportionately bear the burden of cancers in the United States of America. The Synergistic Partnership for Enhancing Equity in Cancer Health (SPEECH) was established to focus on research, workforce development and community-based activities relevant to cancer health disparities in the Philadelphia-New Jersey-New York City (PNN) corridor. SPEECH's overarching goal is to impact cancer health disparities through research and training, and by improving community health, cancer awareness, and access to good quality healthcare.
