1 Cancer Health Disparities in Tarrant County A presentation to the Tarrant County Cancer Disparities Coalition May 3, 07 Marcela Gutierrez, LMSW Assistant Professor in Practice UTA School of Social Work Betty Tonui, MSW PhD Student UTA School of Social Work
2 What are Cancer Health Disparities? Adverse differences in cancer incidence (new cases), cancer prevalence (all existing cases), cancer death (mortality), cancer survivorship, and burden of cancer or related health conditions that exist among specific population groups in the United States In other words--a cancer health disparity exists if simply being part of a certain group means that you are more likely to get cancer, die from cancer, and experience significant work and life disruptions from cancer. Source: National Cancer Institute
3 WHO is impacted by Cancer Health Disparities? Groups that experience cancer health disparities are typically characterized by. age disability education ethnicity gender geographic location income race People who are poor, lack health insurance, and have limited or no access to effective health care are often impacted more severely by cancer than the general population
4 How do social and economic factors impact a person s risk of cancer? Individuals may be at risk of cancer because of genetics or personal health choices such tobacco or alcohol use, dietary choices, physical inactivity, or obesity/overweight. However, differences between groups are strongly influenced by social and economic factors such as being uninsured/underinsured, low income, education level, occupation, social status in the community, neighborhood poverty, etc.
5 Tobacco use exists among people of all social classes (individual health behavior), but tobacco companies market more heavily in low-income neighborhoods (socioeconomic factor).
6 Why is RACE important for studying health disparities? Differences in health are particularly pronounced for racial/ethnic groups such as African-Americans and Latinos, Many of these differences persist even when you compare groups of similar socioeconomic status.
7 Which types of cancers are most impacted by health disparities? Researchers have found significant evidence of health disparities in the following five types of cancer: Breast Cervical Prostate Cervical Lung
8 e.g. uninsured status Racial or class discrimination, lack of access to health care Financial, physical, and cultural beliefs about health and healthcare Gerend, M. A., & Pai, M. (008). Social determinants of Black-White disparities in breast cancer mortality: a review. Cancer Epidemiology and Prevention Biomarkers, 7(),

24 AT WHAT STAGE DO PEOPLE GET DIAGNOSED? Cancer Health Disparities in STAGE OF DIAGNOSIS
25 Why does it matter when people get diagnosed? Research shows that individuals from medically underserved populations are more likely to be diagnosed with late-stage diseases that might have been treated more effectively or cured if diagnosed earlier. In Situ Localized Early Stage Regional Distant Late Stage Unknown

Within Tarrant County, Hispanics are most likely to be diagnosed with late-stage cervical or colorectal cancer than other racial/ethnic group Within Tarrant County, Blacks are most likely to be diagnosed with late-stage breast, prostate or lung cancer than other racial/ethnic groups
