The Memphis and Shelby County HPV Cancer Prevention Roundtable is a collaboration of healthcare, community, and advocacy partners with a mission to measurably increase HPV vaccination coverage in Memphis and Shelby County, Tennessee. The Roundtable grew out of concern for increased diagnoses of preventable cervical cancers by oncologist Dr. Michael Ulm at West Cancer Center. After a meeting of local HPV partners to address these concerns, the formal Roundtable was established in 2021.
Our guiding principles are:
Membership in the Roundtable is extended to individuals and organizations interested in supporting our mission and guiding principles. The Executive Committee is the Roundtable’s governing body that supports the mission, determines the scope of activities, and helps in membership growth. The Planning Committee works on establishing programmatic activities, including the annual Roundtable.
This roundtable training experience is presented with Unity Consortium, and will showcase the newly-updated 3Cs program as well as help you develop skills to improve adolescent vaccination coverage.
