Each year, the SCI Community Outreach & Engagement staff (Ellen and Rachel) organize activities in April to raise awareness about cancer clinical research. There will be some signature activities and new community events that we encourage the CCTO staff to get involved in:

1) Disseminate/wear “Ask Me about Clinical Trials” button: for CCTO staff, Cancer Center clinicians, and other appropriate Cancer Center staff. Check with Amanda Sullivan for supplies.
2) Give a gift to your study volunteer: “Hero for Research” pins for Stanford cancer clinical trial participants. Check with Amanda Sullivan for supplies.
3) Solicit and submit ‘Share Your Story’ for the SCI Website cancer.stanford.edu/trials/stories.html

4) General awareness poster display at Cancer Centers Palo Alto and South Bay

5) April 11th community event at Stanford Redwood City – Future of Cancer Cancer Talk: Cancer & Genetic Risk.
