LOCAL AREA SPOTLIGHT

The Great Lakes Cancer Institute has partnered with ACS to open Resource Centers in their treatment facilities. Read more about their first ACS Resource Center in this month’s local area spotlight.


OPPORTUNITIES AVAILABLE

If you have never been diagnosed with cancer and want to fight back, enroll in Cancer Prevention Study 3 (CPS-3) at one of the six Relay For Life events chosen as sites in the Great Lakes Division. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to contribute to ACS cancer research that will reduce the cancer burden for this and future generations.

Cancer survivors can help spread the word about this exciting research opportunity by encouraging friends, co-workers, and family members to enroll. To learn more and find a CPS-3 enrollment site near you, visit www.cancer.org/cps3.
