Who We Are

The Indigenous Community Advisory Cohort (ICAC) is a circle of Indigenous leaders, cultural practitioners,
and community partners dedicated to advancing cancer equity for Tribal Nations, Urban and Rural Indigenous
communities across the West Region and beyond. ICAC members provide cultural guidance and strategic insight to
ensure ACS programs are Indigenous-led, community-informed, and culturally safe. Together, ICAC strengthens
relationships, elevates community voices, and shapes initiatives that help reduce disparities and improve access to
prevention, screening, treatment, and survivorship support. As trusted advisors and connectors, members co-create
meaningful, sustainable solutions grounded in Indigenous knowledge, lived experience, and the values of respect,
reciprocity, and sovereignty.
