Did you know March is Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month? This month, march towards a healthier you! If you are 45+, you may be eligible for screening.

50% of Americans don’t know colorectal cancer screening can be done at home.

That knowledge gap can lead to dangerous delays in prevention or diagnosis.

Screening options include simple, noninvasive tests that you can complete privately at home.

Talk to your doctor to see what test is right for you, or take this short quiz to get a personalized recommendation at getscreened.org.

Today, 62 National Cancer Institute (NCI)-Designated Cancer Centers, national organizations, and the University of Puerto Rico Comprehensive Cancer Center released a statement reinforcing the importance of HPV vaccination and urging health systems, providers, parents, caregivers, and the public to take action to increase HPV vaccination coverage.

HPV vaccination is safe and protects against six types of cancer – including oropharyngeal, cervical, and a**l cancers.

Recent data show no gains in HPV vaccination coverage, falling short of national goals.

We must act now to protect today’s children from future HPV-related cancers.

What you can do:
✅ Parents – ask your child’s doctor about HPV vaccination starting at age 9.
✅ Providers – recommend HPV vaccination at every visit.
✅ Communities – spread the word: HPV vaccination is cancer prevention.

Join us in sharing the facts about HPV vaccination and increasing the number of children protected today against HPV cancers tomorrow.
