  • 1.  Letters about vaccinations and/or cancer screenings

    I just got done participating in the monthly Comprehensive Cancer Control National Partners (CCCNP) Coalition Check-In meeting that takes place for comprehensive cancer control grantees/coalitions and we had a great discussion about HPV vaccination letters that different grantees have published, and I thought I'd go ahead and create a discussion thread to see if anyone was interested in sharing the letters their programs have been involved with (about vaccination and/or cancer screenings) in case that's useful.

    Here in Iowa, we've done a few letters about HPV vaccination and cancer screenings that have had multiple organizations' logos on them. I've attached a letter we sent out in January 2023 to healthcare providers about the importance of getting patients caught up on cancer screenings (including a focus on colorectal cancer screening) and vaccinations (including a focus on HPV vaccination). I'd love to see other letters, please feel free to share in a response!

    Thanks for posting this, Katie! It was a great discussion. If there is a lot of interest we could work with our members, including ACS and their HPV Roundtable to share other examples. 

    Thanks,

    Leslie
