Global Women's Health Fellow

Cure Cervical Cancer  (CCC) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit based in the U.S. and Kenya, dedicated to the early detection and prevention of cervical cancer in developing countries. Cervical cancer claims the lives of 350,000+ women annually, with 90% of deaths occurring in low- and middle-income countries. CCC is currently focused on bringing preventive care to Kenya, where cervical cancer is the leading cause of cancer deaths for women, claiming 9 lives every day.

Mobile Health for Mamas is CCC’s community-based program bringing home-based HPV testing, mobile treatment clinics, and patient navigation directly to women in the rural and remote regions of Kenya. By co-designing and co-implementing this program with Kenya’s Ministry of Health and local governments, as well as training local healthcare workers to serve as frontline providers for screening and treatment, Mobile Health for Mamas is empowering Kenya’s healthcare system to prioritize cervical cancer prevention for the long term.

To date, CCC has reached 216,000+ women worldwide and 47,000+ women in Kenya with life‑saving cervical cancer care.
