Provide leadership in using a community-based participatory research (CBPR) approach for all aspects of the Center 3. Promote interaction between the Center and its community and NCI partners 4. Provide administrative support for meetings, travel, and other logistics 5. Manage all facets of communication within the Center 6. Encourage collaborative research within the Center and between community partners and the National Cancer Institute (NCI) 7. Provide information to the Center Steering Committee and the Community Advisory Board (CAB) 8. Provide logistical support for all trans-CNP Centers interactions and interactions with NCI 9. Seek supplemental funding to expand activities beyond the scope of the CNP funding mechanism
