Asian American and Pacific Islander Cancer Survivors Capacity Building Project:

Kalihi-Palama Health Center is involved in a national cancer survivorship project with the Asian & Pacific Islander American Health Forum (APIAHF), Association of Asian and Pacific Islanders Community Health Organizations (AAPCHO), and the Family Health Center (FHCW).

Funded by the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), the Asian American & Pacific Islander (AAPI) Cancer Survivors Capacity Building Project is dedicated to improving cancer prevention, early detection, and survivorship among Asian American and Pacific Islander communities.

This project serves the AAPI cancer survivor population through the facilitation of a network of cancer support groups and coordination of resources. This project will coordinate communication between existing AAPI cancer survivor support groups and AAPI cancer programs, host strategy exchanges, share best practices, facilitate support group forums, and advocate for research within the AAPI cancer survivor community.
