Colon Cancer Awareness & Education: Reduce Your Risk of Colon Cancer

March 20 @ 5:00 pm 6:00 pm

March is National Colorectal Cancer Month. Colon cancer affects about 140,000 Americans each year, and more than 50,000 of them die from it. Colorectal cancer tests are designed to find precancerous polyps— which can turn into cancer over time. That’s why screening and early detection is key. Learn about the various methods of screening for colon cancer and how to get tested.
