“Big announcement today by the American Cancer Society: .
Today, the American Cancer Society (ACS) is proud to announce the launch of the VOICES of Black Women study, the largest behavioral and environmental focused population study of cancer risk and outcomes in Black women in the United States.
Designed to better understand the multi-level drivers of cancer incidence, mortality and resilience within this demographic, the long-term study will gather valuable data from Black women between the ages of 25 and 55 from diverse backgrounds and income levels who have not been diagnosed with cancer.
The organization aims to enroll over 100,000 Black women living in Alabama, California, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Louisiana, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Mississippi, Missouri, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, and Washington, D.C., where, according to the U.S. Census, more than 90 percent of Black women in the U.S. reside.
Eligible women can learn more and enroll here.”
