Help fight skin cancer with a good look
What you see could save a life. No group sees as much skin up close as you do. And that's why we need your help.
To combat rising skin cancer rates in Oregon and beyond we have launched a War on Melanoma™. As a critical part of our efforts, we are looking to partner with skin-aware professionals to broaden our messaging for skin cancer prevention and early detection.
Join the Skin Crew: We have developed a free online training to help skin-aware professionals identify something on the skin that “doesn’t look right”, and created tools to help engage with clients to seek follow-up care. You can be a part of a team of skin-aware professionals that keep our communities safe from skin cancer!
