March is NATIONAL COLORECTAL AWARENESS MONTH

The Cancer Research and Prevention Foundation site at http://preventcancer.org/colorectal has some very good information on colon and rectal cancer. It informs the public about prevention and risk reduction, early detection with screening tests, and about life styles and habits which contribute to or inhibit colorectal cancer. You can go to their site to learn what you can do to keep yourself as safe as possible, or stop by the library and pick up their handouts on this topic.
