The Cancer Network is a Rhode Island–based nonprofit organization focused on improving the lives of LGBTQI+ cancer survivors and individuals at risk. It pursues its mission by educating the LGBTQI+ community about elevated cancer risks and the importance of screening and early detection, training health care providers to deliver culturally competent and welcoming care, and advocating for LGBTQI+ survivors within mainstream cancer organizations, media, and research spheres. Operating within the civic and social organizations sector, the group engages a community-facing audience and collaborates with healthcare and research partners to address disparities in cancer care. The organization is headquartered in Providence and operates with a relatively small staff, reflecting its focused scope. A recent development includes involvement in consensus recommendations efforts and collaboration with related organizations to advance cancer care and equity for LGBTQI+ patients.
