While traditional health education approaches play a critical role, they often fail to engage historically marginalized populations in culturally resonant ways. Innovative strategies that leverage creativity, trust-building, and community participation are urgently needed. In 2024, the Community Outreach and Engagement (COE) Department at the John Theurer Cancer Center launched \"Paint and Sip,\" an arts-based cancer education series designed to increase engagement and awareness in diverse communities. Events were held in accessible, non-clinical venues and combined guided painting sessions with culturally tailored cancer education, delivered by trained community health workers (CHWs). During natural pauses in the painting process, CHWs led 15-min discussions on cancer prevention topics, including screening guidelines, risk factors, and genetic testing. All participants completed a brief social determinants of health screening questionnaire and were offered patient navigation services to address unmet needs and support screening follow-through. Since its launch, the series engaged 191 participants across multiple community settings. Attendance averaged 25 per event, with strong retention and word-of-mouth promotion. Among participants, 82% were not up to date with cancer screening, and 62% accepted navigation support. Qualitative feedback highlighted the events as \"uplifting,\" \"judgment-free,\" and \"a new way to learn about health without fear.\" CHWs reported increased participant openness and discussion around stigmatized topics. The Paint and Sip model illustrates the promise of arts-based engagement as a novel strategy for advancing cancer education and screening in underserved communities. By embedding creativity into health education, the model fosters trust, enhances message retention, and bridges awareness with action. Further research is warranted to evaluate long-term impact, scalability, and cost-effectiveness.</p>","PeriodicalId":50246,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Cancer Education","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2025-06-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144530816","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Effective prevention strategies, including educational initiatives, are crucial. This study explores a comprehensive framework for breast cancer prevention by examining the relationship between awareness of modifiable and non-modifiable risk factors and knowledge of preventive practices among women over 20 years of age. A cross-sectional, observational study was conducted from January to June 2022 at a Mexican first-contact center on the Mexico-USA border. A convenience sample of 504 women aged ≥ 20 was surveyed using a self-completed questionnaire covering socio-demographic data, epidemiological data, and questions related to modifiable and non-modifiable risk factors and prevention practices. The sample had a mean age of 41.46 years. Most participants had no family history of breast cancer (77.8%), lived with a partner (73.4%), had children (84.9%), and had breastfed (70.8%). The multiple regression model significantly predicted knowledge of preventive practices (F[8, 495] = 8.793, p < 0.001, adj. R<sup>2</sup> = 0.110), with knowledge of non-modifiable risks, having children, and breastfeeding contributing significantly. Awareness of non-modifiable risk factors was higher than that of modifiable factors, but overall knowledge of both factors and preventive actions remained low. Effective prevention programs for breast cancer must be grounded in a comprehensive understanding of both modifiable and non-modifiable risk factors, which are essential for designing strategies to address the global burden of the disease. The findings underscore the lack of knowledge about modifiable and non-modifiable risk factors which reduce the possibilities for improving breast cancer prevention. Future research should prioritize investigating the causal relationship between risk factor awareness and preventive behaviors, while also developing targeted interventions.

In a multicenter interventional randomized controlled trial, a total of 660 Colombian dental students and dentists were randomly assigned to one of three groups between September 2022 and August 2023 by means of the random number table method at ten different institutions involved in dental education. With a loss to follow-up rate of 25%, Group 1 consisted of 107 cases, Group 2 consisted of 177 cases, and the control group consisted of 164 cases. The control group did not receive training, whereas Group 1 received a leaflet, and Group 2 participated in a MOOC-based learning approach. The assessment results of the knowledge, attitudes, and practice scores were observed and compared among the three groups of participants before and 2 months after the intervention. Compared with the control group, Group 2 presented significantly higher scores for KAP (P < 0.05). The group also showed greater improvements in terms of knowledge, attitudes, and practices (P < 0.05) than did the control group. Additionally, the KAP scores of the students in Group 2 were significantly higher than those of the dentists. Group 2 also demonstrated a substantially greater size effect in KAP. The implementation of MOOC teaching was shown to positively affect standardized training and teaching related to oral cancer, thereby enhancing academic performance in this area.Trial registration: ISRCTN48708543.</p>","PeriodicalId":50246,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Cancer Education","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2025-06-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144318555","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
