The Partnership for Native American Cancer Prevention (NACP)

The Partnership for Native American Cancer Prevention (NACP) is a collaboration between Northern Arizona University and the University of Arizona Cancer Center, funded through the National Cancer Institute.

The mission is to alleviate the unequal burden of cancer among Native Americans of the Southwest through research, training and community outreach programs in collaboration with the communities we serve.

The Restoring Balance in Indian Country program is a physical activity intervention among Native American cancer survivors.  The physical activity intervention was designed based on information gathered from Navajo cancer survivors in focus groups and interviews related to physical activity preferences, barriers, and needs. It also follows the American College of Sports Medicine guidelines for physical activity in cancer survivorship.
