Education Network to Advance Cancer Clinical Trials (ENACCT)

[Scott]

The mission of ENACCT is to identify and implement innovative approaches to cancer clinical trials education, outreach, and recruitment to improve outcomes for cancer patients.

Its key strategies are to:

• provide services that enhance the capacity of organizations conducting clinical trials outreach, education and recruitment
• support organizations in their efforts to reduce specific structural barriers to clinical trial recruitment
• support the development of programs that enhance community literacy about clinical trials
• serve as a national clearinghouse for effective clinical trials education practices

The organization's pilot education program is funded by a grant from the Lance Armstrong Foundation.
