Over the past 16 years, the Vietnamese Community Health Promotion Project staff (listed below) has conducted a variety of community-based assessment, outreach and intervention research projects.  We have targeted cervical and breast cancer screening among Vietnamese women, tobacco prevention and cessation among Vietnamese men and youth, and hepatitis B immunization of Vietnamese children.  We have worked in the Bay Area, in other areas of California and the U.S., and even once in Vietnam.  To fund this research, we’ve received over 20 grants and contracts totaling more than 15 million dollars from a variety of agencies: the California Department of Health Services; the National Cancer Institute; the American Cancer Society; the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention; the Northern California Cancer Center; and the University of California’s Tobacco-Related Disease Research Program, Pacific Rim Program, and Breast Cancer Research Program. We have published more than 50 papers on cancer control, over half of them relating to Vietnamese.  As our projects burgeoned, the number of our staff grew rapidly, and we moved to new office spaces several times within San Francisco (400 Parnassus Avenue, 25^th Avenue and Irving Street, 44 Montgomery Street, 44 Page Street, and a branch office in San Jose).
