The Tampa Bay Community Cancer Network is a collaborative The Tampa Bay Community Cancer Network is a collaborative network of community-academic partners founded in 2005. Led by Drs. Meade and Gwede, TBCCN consists of about 31 diverse partner organizations, including social service organizations grassroots, faith-based, and adult education/literacy groups, community clinics and FQHCs and Moffitt. The idea for our research directly stems from TBCCN partners’ longstanding interest in addressing a health concern affecting men and women, providing literacy appropriate CRC education, and expanding access to cancer screening. TBCCN’s four workgroups include: Biobanking and Screening, Youth Ambassador’s Reaching Out (YARO), Person’s Living with HIV (PLWH), and Survivorship.
