Spirit of Eagles
“The American Indian / Alaska Native Initiative on Cancer” (“Spirit of EAGLES”)
[U54-CA153605-01] was initiated in 2000 as one of eighteen NCI-funded Special
evaluated to increase cancer awareness among tribal Nations and organizations
throughout the U.S.
The focus of this next phase for the SoE Community Networks Program (hereafter
referred to as SoE-CNP”) [U54-CA153605-01] is to increase community-based
participatory research opportunities addressing culturally relevant education,
training, and research. The long-term goal is to reduce cancer health disparities by
maintaining and expanding tribal community networks and coalitions established
by the SoE.
This includes (a) enhancing collaborations with NCI’s NON (National Outreach
Network for the National Cancer Institute); (b) recruiting Natives for education,
training, and research opportunities; and (c) expanding SoE in the southeast,
northeast, the Northern Plains, and multi-tribal urban areas.
