PARTICIPATING CONFERENCES AND ORGANIZATIONS CURRENTLY INCLUDE: - THE COLLABORATIVE GROUP OF THE AMERICAS ON INHERITED COLORECTAL CANCER (CGA-ICC); - THE SOCIETY FOR SURGICAL ONCOLOGY (SSO); - AND THE FOUNDATION'S OWN EARLY AGE ONSET COLORECTAL CANCER (EAO-CRC) SUMMIT (THE FOUNDATION DID NOT HOLD ONE IN 2023 BUT LOT OF PLANNING & SCHEDULING FOR ONE IN 2024) COLON CANCER PREVENTION INTERNSHIP PROGRAM CCF RECOGNIZES THE IMPORTANCE OF A NEW GENERATION OF PUBLIC HEALTH LEADERS WHO UNDERSTAND PUBLIC HEALTH AND CANCER PREVENTION ISSUES AND THE ROLE OF INTERNATIONAL ORGANIZATIONS IN ACHIEVING OUR MISSION OF A WORLD WITHOUT COLORECTAL CANCER. IN THIS REGARD, THE CCF CREATED AND LAUNCHED AN INTERNSHIP PROGRAM AIMED AT TRAINING YOUNG AND ENERGETIC INDIVIDUALS ENTERING THE FIELD OF PUBLIC HEALTH, ESPECIALLY THOSE INTERESTED IN CANCER PREVENTION. THUS FAR, OUR INTERNS HAVE COME FROM LEADING MEDICAL SCHOOLS, PUBLIC HEALTH AND COMMUNICATIONS PROGRAMS FROM AROUND THE COUNTRY AND EVEN THE GLOBE. AS PART OF THE INTERNSHIP, STUDENTS REVIEW NEW CRC RESEARCH STUDIES, ATTEND CRC VIRTUAL CONFERENCES AND UPDATE OUR DIGITAL PLATFORM AND WEB ARTICLES TO REFLECT THE LATEST RESEARCH ON CANCER PREVENTION, INCLUDING DIET, EXERCISE, AND OTHER HEALTH HABITS AS WELL AS AVOIDING DANGEROUS EXPOSURES. THEY PROACTIVELY RESEARCH CURRENT PUBLIC HEALTH ISSUES IN THE CRC PREVENTION SPACE, SUCCINCTLY ARTICULATE HEALTH RESEARCH AND POLICY CHANGES TO A VARIETY OF AUDIENCES AND CRITICALLY ASSESS DIFFERING PERSPECTIVES ON HEALTH ISSUES - ALL REFLECTIVE OF A PATIENT'S JOURNEY THROUGH THE CONTINUUM OF CARE. THROUGH THESE INTERNSHIP OPPORTUNITIES, STUDENTS LEARN FIRST-HAND ABOUT PUBLIC HEALTH AND CANCER PREVENTION, GAINING HANDS-ON EXPERIENCE IN SEVERAL AREAS, INCLUDING EDUCATION AND AWARENESS, COMMUNICATION/MEDIA RELATIONS, AND CONSTITUENT ENGAGEMENT. OUR ENTIRE TEAM WORKS CLOSELY WITH THE MEDIA TO GET OUR MESSAGE OUT TO THE PUBLIC. WE CONNECT WITH POLICY MAKERS AND DECISION MAKERS ON A NATIONAL LEVEL TO CHANGE PUBLIC POLICY AND WORK WITH INDEPENDENT RESEARCHERS FROM AROUND THE COUNTRY TO BRING FAIR, UNBIASED AND NON-CORPORATE-FUNDED INFORMATION TO THE PUBLIC ABOUT TIMELY ISSUES THAT MATTER TO CLINICIANS AND PATIENTS SUCH AS DIET AND EXERCISE, FAMILY HISTORY, GENETIC SYNDROMES, AND CRC OF UNKNOWN CAUSE. |
