March is National Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month. Although we focus on colon cancer screening year round, the nation makes a particular effort to bring attention to this most important health care issue in March. If you are up to date with screening, get involved by encouraging your friends, family, and neighbors to initiate or update their screening. If you are age 50-75 or an African American age 45-75, call the Colon Screening Program now at 523-7350 to get a stool testing kit, and then consider doing a colon exam this year.
