The aim of the CancerPACTS.org resource is to serve as a training tool and for ongoing support for those navigators who work with us in supporting the medically underserved with cancer.

This CancerPACTS (Cancer Patients Alliance for Clinical Trials and Survivorship) site is funded and maintained by the Cancer Patients Alliance, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization incorporated in the State of California. The Executive Director of the Alliance is Dale O’Brien, MD, MPH. 

The CancerPACTS initiative represents outreach to Latinos and the underserved in cancer care – in alliance with private and public sector entities, universities, acute care hospitals, community health workers, promotores networks, community clinics, health providers and organizations, AND especially Centers for Independent Living.
