Student-led program to boost cancer screening in families
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
This study tests whether a program led by students can help more families get cancer screenings. If you are a high school student and have an adult family member who needs a screening, you may be able to join together.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are a student (15–18) at New Brunswick Health Sciences Technology High School.
- You have an adult family member (18+) who lives in New Jersey and can join you.
- The adult must be eligible for at least one cancer screening (like for breast, cervical, colorectal, prostate, or lung cancer).
- You and the adult must both speak the same language — either English or Spanish.
- The adult must be in a certain age range depending on their gender and screening needs (for example, women 21–75, men 45–75, or people 76–80 who smoke).
