The American Cancer Society provides evidence-based, easy-to-understand educational resources on colorectal cancer (CRC). These resources equip healthcare teams to educate and empower their patients and caregivers.
The American Cancer Society developed the STEPS for Increasing Colorectal Cancer Screening Rates: A Manual for Primary Care Practices to offer evidence-based, expert-endorsed recommendations. The Guide outlines a robust plan for increasing CRC screening rates in primary care, which is essential to early diagnosis.
People living in rural areas face higher CRC rates, more risk factors for CRC, and unique barriers to cancer screenings. To support rural primary care practices, the American Cancer Society and National Colorectal Cancer Roundtable developed this guidebook to assist in addressing these issues.
