Our Mission: The Rogel Cancer Center Department of Community Outreach and Engagement (COE) aims to reduce the incidence of cancer across the state of Michigan. Programs and services include public education, a community advisory board and support for innovative research. The department implements evidence-based interventions in collaboration with local communities by applying community-based participatory approaches.

Our staff has a rich history working with all populations to reduce the cancer burden and improve the health and quality of life of all Michiganders.

Our team actively engages with community partners to assess their needs and facilitates the voice of the community in research design and implementation to ensure mutually beneficial outcomes.

We implement evidence-based interventions in collaboration with partner organizations serving all populations across our statewide catchment area.
