September: Prostate Cancer Awareness Month
Information is the first remedy!
This month gives us the opportunity to think, listen, act and support these men and families who are affected by prostate cancer. Did you know that in Quebec, 12 men are diagnosed with prostate cancer every day? However, it is completely curable if it is discovered early enough, if it remains confined to the prostate and if it is treated in a timely manner.
Register for one or all 4 PEP Webinars
During this awareness month, we are pleased to offer you a weekly webinar hosted by Winston McQuade who will be accompanied by an expert on the proposed subject. It is therefore a weekly meeting, from 7 p.m. to 8 p.m.
*The webinars are presented only in French.
