STOP CRC, which is exploring innovative approaches for increasing colon cancer screening rates among low-income and minority populations, is one of the seven UH2 pilot projects supported by the NIH Collaboratory. The demonstration phase of the project will be conducted within a pair of health centers that are part of OCHIN, a community-based network of Federally Qualified Health Centers.
