CPCRN Mission
To accelerate the adoption of evidence-
based cancer prevention and control in
communities.
2
Organization
• One of five Thematic Research Networks in the
Prevention Research Centers (PRCs)
– Only Thematic Network focused on dissemination and
translation
• Collaboration with two Federal Agencies
– CDC – Division of Cancer Prevention and Control
– NCI – Division of Cancer Control and Population
Sciences
• Ten Network Centers at major research institutions

New Cross-Center
Project
CPCRN Survey of Colorectal Cancer
Control Programs (CRCCP)
• Survey CRCCPs to assess Dissemination
and Implementation (D&I) activity
• Identify precursors of D & I success
• Identify challenges to D & I
• Monitor progress over time

A unique opportunity for CPCRN
• Natural laboratory for dissemination
• Defined set of cancer control EBIs
• Large-scale practice settings
• Perfect timing
10
Survey of Federally
Qualified Health Centers
• Sample: FQHCs in Network states belonging to their state
primary health care association.
• Focus on organizational factors that influence
implementation of evidence-based breast, cervical, and
colorectal cancer screening, and tobacco cessation
interventions in primary care practice.
• The project would provide information about translation
processes in health center settings.
• Examine theoretical and conceptual frameworks
pertinent to FQHCs; promising models and measures
applicable to FQHCs; and FQHC infrastructure, capacity
and processes key to dissemination and implementation.

Diverse geographic
areas and diverse
patient populations.
Network members in states with smaller numbers of health centers
could survey all of the health centers in their state, and Network
members in states with larger numbers of health centers could
randomly select a sample of health centers.

TACTICC Aims
• Multi-center grant proposal, reviewed &
scored
• Aim 1: To develop and validate an online,
interactive decision support and program
planning tool (TACTICC) to increase use
of EBAs in communities.
• Aim 2: To evaluate the effectiveness of
TACTICC in increasing EBA adoption,
adaptation, and implementation.

CPCRN Strengths
• Advancing science for implementation and
translation research
• Strong community partnerships
• Focus on underserved populations
• Broad geographic outreach
• Research focus that complements NCI & CDC
priorities
• Infrastructure funding provides impetus to focus
beyond discovery and be opportunistic
