3rd Annual BACPAC Prostate Cancer Community Research Symposium

This event will bring together community members, advocates, researchers and providers to promote education and action around prostate cancer equity in the Black community. Prostate cancer equity means that everyone should have a fair opportunity to prevent, treat and survive prostate cancer, regardless of race, sexual orientation, financial resources, physical abilities or where they live. The symposium will also provide an opportunity to engage in co-learning designed to facilitate greater awareness and understanding between patients, providers and researchers.
