The Herbert Irving Comprehensive Cancer Center Office of Community Outreach and Engagement (COE) brings together a team of experienced researchers, clinicians and community health educators. Working with community stakeholders and community members, HICCC cancer patients, and their families, we are committed to reducing the burden of cancer. We strive to understand the needs of the communities and patients served by the HICCC, and work to remove access barriers to cancer risk reduction, screening, treatment and survivorship services.
