Activating Rural Clinics and Women With Disabilities to Improve Cancer Screening
The goal of this project is to develop and pilot test an innovative approach for overcoming
barriers to cancer screening among women with physical disabilities (WWD) in rural Oregon.
Many studies have shown that people with disabilities receive fewer indicated cancer
screening services and are more likely to have poor cancer-related outcomes, such as late
stage at diagnosis, compared to those without disabilities.
Inclusion Criteria:
- Female
- Aged 50-75 at time of screening
- No personal history of breast, cervical or colorectal cancer
- Not being up-to-date with at least one screening test for breast, cervical, and/or
colorectal cancer
- Meets the study definition of disability per APCC-1 (intervention group) OR
- Be a woman who does not meet the definition of disability on APCC-1, but has been
matched to a participant who does (observation group).
Exclusion Criteria:
- Non female
- Personal history of breast, cervical, or colorectal cancer
