Several members of the Mountain Laurel Cancer Support and Resource Center's Coalition were recently invited to participate in a Community Cancer Control in Appalachia Forum held in Johnson City, Tennessee.  The purpose of the forum was to enhance the understanding of factors related to Appalachian community involvement in cancer control activities.  The forum was supported through a cooperative agreement between the Appalachian Regional Commission, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and East Tennessee State University.
