survivorship care. In fact, some cancer disparities between populations of low and high socioeconomic
status widened during this period. Many potentially preventable cancer deaths continue to occur,
[5] and disadvantaged populations bear a disproportionate burden. Reducing the burden of cancer and
eliminating cancer related disparities will require more focused and coordinated action across multiple
sectors and ∈ partnership with communities. This article, part of the American Cancer Society’s Cancer
Control Blueprint series, introduces a framework for understanding and addressing social determinants
to advance cancer health equity and presents actionable recommendations for practice, research, and
[10] policy. The article aims to accelerate progress toward eliminating disparities ∈ cancer and achieving
health equity.
