Colon V. Cancer
Mission Statement:
Colon V. Cancer will be recognized by young adults as a vital educational resource. Our mission is to deliver clear, accurate information about colorectal cancer. By doing so, we empower young adults with the knowledge they need to protect their health and stay safe.
Problem Statement:
Students in grades K-12 are often not taught the dangers of colorectal cancer. Due to this, knowledge of colorectal cancer is scarce in many communities and demographics, primarily in young adults.
Our goal is to educate young adults on the causes, symptoms, and treatments for colorectal cancer.
