Description
The New Jersey Department of Health’s Colorectal Cancer Screening and Prevention Program supports Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs) in implementing evidence-based interventions to improve colorectal cancer screening among eligible and priority populations. The continuing grant focuses on increasing screening through interventions at health centers, rather than funding a particular screening method or a new research study.
The program appears in the Department’s Division of Health Promotion grant listings. Its purpose is to support continued use of evidence-based approaches that increase colorectal cancer screening in the populations served by participating FQHCs.
