What's
the Big Deal? Reader's Theatre to Inform, Inspire, and Ignite Action is
a script developed with and for Alaska Native and American Indian Community
Health Workers and the people in their communities to provide colorectal cancer
screening information, increase comfort with talking about screening, and
encourage people to have recommended screenings. Stories from survivors,
their families and care givers, medical providers and community health workers
are woven into the lives of six characters who use humor and story to talk
about common questions, concerns, and feelings related to colorectal cancer
screening. The script was co-developed by Melany Cueva of the Alaska
Native Tribal Health Consortium and Mark Dignan of the University of Kentucky.
