MNScreens.org: During LCAM, anytime in November, ABOH will focus on spreading awareness, education, and resources through newsletters, emails, and social media. We will emphasize the importance of screening for early detection, which saves lives. If you or someone you love has a smoking history, take the quiz at MNScreens.org to find out if you are one of the lucky ones who are eligible for screening.
Share Your Story campaign: Help ABOH educate the public anytime in November by sharing your own real-life experiences with lung cancer. If you are willing to share your story, please fill out this form.
Ultimately, Lung Cancer Awareness Month will have no impact without you. With you by our side, we will change and save lives. This month is vital to rounding out the work we do all year, and we count on your support.
