What are RTIPs and why consider them?
If you’ve ever wondered how to apply the Task Force findings related to cancer prevention and control, RTIPs -- Research-tested Intervention Programs -- are for you. Designed to help cancer control program staff, planners and researchers make decisions about the best program options for their needs, RTIPS:
- were developed under the auspices of the National Cancer Institute as part of Cancer Control P.L.A.N.E.T., a Web portal that provides access to the most current and scientifically valid information available about comprehensive cancer control.
- describe evidence-based cancer prevention and control programs that:
- have been implemented in community or clinical settings for specific populations
- were developed and tested by researchers
- include free program materials that can be previewed, downloaded or ordered on CD-ROM
- include program materials that can be previewed and ordered directly from the developer (cost may apply).
- include only programs that meet the following criteria:
- were developed and tested through a peer-reviewed research grant (excluding Career Development Research Grants)
- research findings were published in a peer-reviewed journal
- include messages, materials and other intervention components that can be used in community or clinical settings.
