Dear NCCRT Members & 80% Partners,
We hope your fall is off to a great start! We have a very exciting release to share with you today.

We are excited to announce the release of the newly updated Steps for Increasing Colorectal Cancer Screening Rates: A Manual for Primary Care Practices, a much-anticipated update to the signature NCCRT resource that has been instrumental in helping primary care practices throughout the United States achieve improvements in their colorectal cancer screening rates.
Through a step-by-step format, this newly updated manual provides evidence-based, expert-endorsed strategies to improve colorectal cancer screening rates in primary care practices. The 2022 edition includes:
- An expanded scope to include all primary care settings
- Current screening guidelines and new screening modalities
- Expert-endorsed strategies
- Samples, templates, and tools
- Updated literature references
As a companion to the new Steps Guide, we will release ten extensive case studies from diverse and exemplary clinical practices later this fall.
A primary care clinician recommendation is the most powerful influence on a patient’s decision to get screened for cancer.
We look forward to learning about how you use the Steps Guide to increase potentially life-saving colorectal cancer screening in the communities you serve.
Spread the Word: We encourage you to share this new resource widely! Share the promotional video (see below!), retweet from @NCCRTnews, and visit the webpage to find sample social media posts, template newsletter blurbs, and shareable graphics and animations.
