Can we reduce our risk of cancer?

YES, AND CAN WE IS HERE TO HELP

Research has revealed that lifestyle factors such as higher rates of drinking and smoking, plus lower cancer screening rates, are putting LGBTQ+ communities at a greater risk of cancer than the general population. The good news is we can change this together. Can We is an ACON initiative designed to help our communities stay healthy, take control of our cancer risk, and support one another along the way.
