Home/Lung Cancer Screening Workshop
Lung Cancer Screening WOrkshop
The George Washington University (GW) Cancer Center is hosting a lung cancer screening action-planning workshop and Community of Practice to facilitate inclusion of lung cancer screening in state cancer control plans and to increase the quality of interventions that programs and coalitions use to improve lung cancer screening. This site houses all of the key resources to help comprehensive cancer control programs and coalitions access the tools and planning guides used at the workshop.

Health Belief Model Exercise
Health Belief Model
- Perceived susceptibility: Do people believe they’re at risk?
- Perceived severity: Do they see lung cancer as serious?
- Perceived benefits: Do they believe screening can help?
- Perceived barriers: What gets in the way?
- Cues to action: What prompts screening?
- Self-efficacy: Do they feel confident navigating the process?
Socioecological Model Exercise
Identify the most salient barriers and corresponding EBIs to address barriers (circle what is most relevant to you) and then articulate a next step in the far right column.

Control Programs (EBCCP) makes many of its programs and their products available for your use. EBCCP programs have been reviewed and found to have sufficient information on relevance and effectiveness for you to make an informed choice about their use in your setting. It is important to understand that a given program’s effectiveness was evaluated within a research study, which is a highly controlled situation. It is expected that you may need to adapt the program for your own audience and setting. This fact sheet walks you through how to do this.
