The document analyzes cancer screening data, statistics, and surveys from Morris County, New Jersey to identify high-risk populations and recommend outreach interventions. It finds that 70-80% of survey respondents from previous screenings were Hispanic. This suggests targeting the Hispanic population with the NJCEED cancer education and early detection program to improve education and screenings, and reduce incidence and mortality rates which are high for Hispanics in the county. The evaluation aims to enhance surveys, education programs, and identify additional areas like Butler, NJ and St. Anthony's Church for future screenings.
