Multi-Level Assessment to Reach Out to Rural Breast Cancer Survivors.

Rural breast cancer survivors experience gaps in post-treatment education and support. We report the development and delivery of Reach Out to Rural Breast Cancer Survivors Program. Community-based participatory research and multi-level assessment were used to (a) engage rural community leaders, survivors, and providers; (b) analyze and report results of discussion groups to understand survivorship concerns and preferences; (c) integrate discussion group findings to develop, tailor, and deliver Reach Out; and (d) evaluate Reach Out with regard to satisfaction and helpfulness.
