Gutierrez, M., DeBose, M., Adorno, G., Wilder, M., & Dickerson-Sankofa, D. (November 2014). Navigating the role of a backbone organization in collective impact cancer prevention. Presentation, American Public Health Association (APHA), New Orleans, LA (National).

The Tarrant County Cancer Disparities Coalition (TCCDC) emerged in 2012 with a mission to serve, support and represent the interests of medically underserved, uninsured or underinsured cancer populations. The University of North Texas Health Science Center (UNTHSC) funded the development of the TCCDC through an NIH-designated center of excellence award, under which it committed to collective impact for cancer prevention through a community-based participatory research (CBPR) approach, which seeks to equitably involve all partners in the research process. While UNTHSC has systematically sought to work side-by-side with the community, research has also shown that strong backbone organizations are critical to successful collective impact initiatives.
