## Caption

Penn Medicine is working to reduce #healthdisparities by bringing lifesaving cancer screenings out of the clinic and into the community. As a result of decades of structural racism, people of color experience lower socioeconomic status that causes barriers to #cancerprevention, detection and treatment.

In a piece for phillytrib, Dr. Carmen Guerra outlines our community outreach efforts to eliminate these hurdles and save lives. 🔗 in bio.
