The National Research Center for Women & Families promotes the health and safety of women, men, children, and families — all kinds of families.

Cancer Prevention & Treatment 5K

We will be holding our 3rd annual Cancer Prevention & Treatment 5K Run/Walk on Saturday, September 17 at Bluemont Park in Arlington, VA.  You don’t have to be local to participate this year!  With our virtual race and two fundraising challenges, there are many ways to get involved.  If you’d like to run, walk, or honor a loved one, please visit our brand new Cancer5K.com website for details.

Lunches on Health Issues

Five times a year we hold an informal lunch for leaders in the public and private sectors, focusing on health issues affecting adults or children. There are guest speakers and participants from the government, academic, corporate, and nonprofit community. Every July we hold an informal lunch for interns. The lunches are free but reservations are required.

To get on our lunch invitation list, please email us at: info@center4research.org.
