Equity Assessment

The Chrysalis Initiative’s Equity Assessment, Tools and Improvement Plan, provides an evidence-based system-wide intervention and training for your cancer center or organization and ensures that your cancer care being administered is addressing disparities within the cancer care continuum using a community-based participatory research approach.  High-quality breast cancer care across the care continuum includes equity and reduces and, in some cases, eliminates disparities.  How can you be sure that your cancer care delivery system is equitable, not only by intention, but in demonstrated impact?  What changes or improvements have to be made to reach your institutional principle of achieving equity in cancer care?
