  • This Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month, The Community Health Center of Buffalo is getting the word out about getting screened for colon cancer. It's something that can show no symptoms in its early stages.

The article from MSN discusses the efforts of the Buffalo Health Center in Buffalo, New York, to increase awareness and accessibility of colon cancer screenings. Highlighting the importance of early detection, the center has initiated a program offering free or low-cost screenings to the community, aiming to reduce the high incidence and mortality rates of colorectal cancer, particularly in underserved populations. The initiative includes educational outreach to inform the public about the benefits of screening, the risks associated with colorectal cancer, and how to access these services. The center's approach is part of a broader strategy to combat health disparities by making preventive care more accessible, thereby potentially saving lives through early intervention.
