In June 2024, the Karmanos Cancer Institute Office of Cancer Health Equity and Community Engagement (OCHECE) and the Genesee County Cancer Action Council hosted a webinar titled, "Navigating from Planet to Plate: Understanding the Connection between Food, Environment & Cancer". During this webinar, community members will learn about about food, environmental exposures and their impact on cancer.
Michigan Cancer HealthLink is a statewide network created to build research capacity in diverse communities. At the heart of Michigan Cancer HealthLink are the Cancer Action Councils (CACs). CACs are groups made up of cancer survivors, caregivers, and advocates who come together to share their cancer concerns and turn them into research action. The Macomb County CAC started in 2018 as an expansion of Michigan Cancer HealthLink.
