March is Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month.
Colorectal cancer is often preventable with routine screening beginning at age 45 for people at average risk. People at higher risk may need to get screened earlier. Most people have multiple screening options—some can even be completed at home.

💙 Hear from Open Door's health educator, Sally Myers, about the importance of colon cancer screenings.

✅ Talk to your healthcare provider about when and how you and your family should get screened.

Colorectal cancer is one of the most preventable and treatable cancers when detected early, yet it is still the second leading cause of cancer deaths. Why?
