In addition, the program is also essentially seeking to not only bring together, but also to aid and facilitate an increase in the population of scientists with a high level of basic research expertise in the field of cancer health disparities research while simultaneously provide financial resources to those investigators who need additional support to successfully complete their existing cancer health disparity-associated projects.

In order to make this happen, the NIH and NCI are set to administer annual funds in the amount of $275,000 to support the initiatives of the program.
