FIVE WAYS
TO TAKE ACTION
1. HAVE A CONVERSATION
It’s simple: Just ask your older family members if they have gotten a colonoscopy yet. If not, try to get them to do it for your sake. Even a little nudge can help. Plus, make sure you know your family history for colon cancer. Sometimes, it might surprise you.

3. DONATE
You can help fund colonoscopies and other types of screenings, and provide financial support for transport and lodging during treatment.


4. CALL THE HELPLINE
The Alliance’s certified navigators are here for you. Whether you have questions about getting checked for colon cancer, or you or a loved one have already received a colorectal cancer diagnosis, you can ask a live person for assistance.
