A Legacy of Science and Community Engagement via the Community Networks Program

This special issue documents the progress of a unique group of research investigations that further legitimize the engagement of affected communities in quality cancer health disparities research and, the importance of mentoring and training of new and diverse health disparity researchers. The implications for the reduction and elimination of cancer health disparities within the United States are apparent. The diversity of populations included in these novel studies also has implications for addressing inequities in a global context
