Assess Breast and Cervical Cancer Screening Program Activities to

Expand Access to Screening



The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Division of Cancer Prevention and Control (DCPC) is assessing how state, tribal and territorial health departments implemented the National Breast and Cervical Cancer Early Detection Program (NBCCEDP) in DP1205 program year 1, the time period July 1, 2012 through June 30, 2013.


Specifically, the purpose of this data collection is to better understand how you are implementing your BCCEDP programs to an expanded target population within an evolving healthcare context and to collect information about your training and technical assistance needs. Your feedback is extremely important. Your responses to the questions are voluntary, anonymous, and will be kept in a secure manner. Results will be incorporated into individual and summary grantee reports for you and other stakeholders.


CDC will NOT use these data to make funding decisions. These data will provide a baseline on the activities you are implementing. Given the evolving health care context, we expect that grantees will make changes in the types of activities implemented over the course of the DP1205 5-year program. We do NOT expect that any program will be doing all of the activities asked about in this data collection.


Thank you for your participation.
