April is Cancer Control Month
Each year in April, Cancer Control Month calls attention to the fight against cancer, and advances that have made it easier to find and treat the disease. The American Cancer Society (ACS) works year-round on its goal to stop cancer as a major health problem.
Preferred Care wants to help you eat well, live actively, and feel good. Cancer Control Month is the perfect time to encourage your family - and challenge yourself - to make cancer-preventing habits a part of your life.
You can find many simple and easy resources right here on Preferred Care's web site to help you and your family learn more about cancer - what can cause it, your risk factors, and easy steps you can take to lower your risk. It's time to live well!
