Shining Light on Partner Experience: Highlights from an Evaluation of the Utah Cancer Screening Project
Sharing evaluation findings with those from whom data is collected promotes equity, inclusivity, and facilitates shared decision making
Summary:
From 2017-2019, the Utah Cancer Control Program (UCCP) partnered with a network of federally qualified health centers for the Utah Cancer Screening and Prevention Project. Project partners worked to implement evidence based interventions (EBIs) to increase cancer screening rates in Utah. In order to evaluate the ongoing implementation and sustainability of the project strategies, a mixed methods evaluation was conducted by UCCP staff which included key findings and recommendations. Results from the evaluation were shared with project partners, which prompted and enabled renewed collaboration amongst partners to take actionable steps regarding the recommendations from the evaluation.
