MassCONECT stands for Massachusetts Community Networks to Eliminate Cancer Disparities through Education, Research and Training. One of the National Cancer Institute's Community Networks Programs, MassCONECTunites the Harvard School of Public Health (HSPH) and the Dana-Farber/Harvard Cancer Center (DF/HCC) with our three community partners; Boston, Lawrence, and Worcester.

Our primary goal is to reduce cancer and other health disparities in these urban Massachusetts communities. To do this, we are engaging key partners, including major policy makers, to develop and increase capacity and to support community-based education, research, and training.
