A equipe de Avaliação e Pesquisa do CADCA convida você a participar de nossa série bimestral de webinars Conversas: Colocando a Pesquisa em Ação - a ponte entre a pesquisa acadêmica e os esforços diários da coalizão. Ao longo do ano, moderamos conversas ao vivo com especialistas em prevenção do uso indevido de substâncias e membros participantes da coalizão. Esta é a sua oportunidade de aprender sobre as pesquisas mais recentes e suas implicações para o trabalho da coalizão e fazer perguntas pertinentes a especialistas em suas áreas.

The Geographic Health Equity Alliance (GHEA), a CADCA initiative, is a CDC funded National Network dedicated to reducing geographic health disparities related to tobacco and cancer. We define geographic health disparities as the differences in health behaviors and health outcomes related to where people live, work and play. Our network supports the implementation of effective public health practices in places that need them the most. We work closely with state tobacco and cancer programs and their partners to provide training and support on how to reduce.
