Abstract
BACKGROUND: This commentary summarizes quality of life (QOL) research priorities gleaned from three sources: (1) Native survivors who are participating as working group members to develop QOL education modules, (2) enrolled members of the "National Native American Cancer Survivors' Support Network," and (3) participants of the "1st National Native American Cancer Survivors'/Thrivers' Conference." METHODS: Criteria for including issues within this summary are that the issue was raised by 8 or more different survivors from at least 2 of the data collection sources. RESULTS: The research priorities identified insufficient or lack of access to quality care and resources. CONCLUSIONS: Nine research issues were prioritized by Native cancer survivors.
