Description
The Community Research Collaboration (CRC) Awards, offered by the California Breast Cancer Research Program (CBCRP), support collaborative research partnerships between California-based community organizations and academic researchers. These awards are designed to address critical breast cancer questions through community-driven, participatory research that combines lived experience with scientific expertise. The CRC program aims to generate research findings that inform public health, reduce the burden of breast cancer, and address health disparities—especially for underserved or underrepresented populations in California.
