MARYLAND COMMUNITY HEALTH SURVEY

On behalf of the University of Maryland Greenebaum Comprehensive Cancer Center (UMGCCC), we invite you and others in Maryland to complete this community health survey.  This community health survey aims to learn more about the cancer knowledge, beliefs, and behaviors of people living throughout Maryland. Information from the survey will help the UMGCCC better understand the needs of Marylanders and will be used to develop future wellness and cancer education, outreach, treatment, and research activities.


Please share this flyer with your friends and family. Please do not share on social media. The survey will take approximately 10 minutes and will be available online; please see the link below.  For a limited time, the first 50 participants, per county, who complete the survey will be offered a $15 digital gift card.


The survey is anonymous, so personal information will not be collected (contact information for gift cards will be kept separate from the survey). 

To participate in the community health survey, individuals should be:


  • Ages 18 years or older
  • Live or reside in Maryland
  • Willing to complete a 10-minute survey in English about wellness and cancer in their community
