CAPC INCITE Training Program: Applications Open for Cancer Center Teams
The Center to Advance Palliative Care (CAPC) invites applications for its Increasing Caregiver Support Implementation through Training and Education (INCITE) Training Program for U.S. cancer center teams.
A major challenge in advancing support for family and friend caregivers of individuals with cancer is the lack of guidance on how to implement evidence-based programs into practice. To address this need, the INCITE program is a new national training initiative for cancer center teams, including clinicians, administrators and other support staff, led by nationally-recognized caregiving experts.
The program will include pre-workshop online learning, a two-day in-person workshop, and six months of post-workshop technical assistance with national experts. Interprofessional teams of clinicians and administrators will learn how to identify, adapt, implement, evaluate and sustain evidence-based programs for family caregivers of people with cancer. Participants will gain practical tools for mission alignment, workflow integration, billing and business planning, and long-term sustainability, helping their institutions enhance patient and caregiver outcomes and strengthen supportive care services.
CAPC is now accepting applications from U.S. cancer center teams for the second cohort of the program. Interested organizations must submit an online application to be considered. Applications close June 15.
The INCITE Training Program, hosted by the University of Alabama at Birmingham and the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, is funded through 2030 by the National Cancer Institute (NCI)/The National Institutes of Health (NIH), with collaborating organizations, including CAPC, the American Cancer Society, The John A. Hartford Foundation and the National Alliance for Caregiving. It is supported by NIH/NCI Research Grant R25CA291554.
Learn more and apply for the INCITE training program by June 15.
