The Illinois Public Health Association (IPHA) in the US has received grant funding from cancer screening and diagnostic tests provider Exact Sciences to improve colorectal cancer screening rates.
The funds will be used to support screening and provide more healthcare access to the counties of Sangamon and Macon.
IPHA secured the funding through Exact Sciences’ Funding Opportunities for CRC Screening Uptake Strategies (FOCUS) Program, which was launched in June 2022.
