What started as one woman’s vision has since grown into a national coalition of passionate staff, volunteers, and advocates working together to end colorectal cancer deaths by increasing screening and educating others about the signs and symptoms of this PREVENTABLE disease. We want everyone to understand their risk factors and get the right screening at the right time.
We lead initiatives to combat colorectal cancer in communities across North America, focusing on local communities and ensuring that our efforts have a tangible and lasting impact on screening, education and awareness, support, and research. Our impact is as diverse as the communities we serve.
To make colorectal cancer screening a life-long health practice available to all.
We hope to empower each individual, through awareness and resources, to embrace colorectal cancer screening as an integral part of their lifelong health journey.
To improve health outcomes by reducing barriers to complete colorectal cancer screening and educating the public to advocate for their own health through tailored, local, grassroots solutions.
Our signature seven-pointed star represents the seven key values and driving principles of The Coalition: Authenticity, Compassion, Dignity, Trust, Community, Joy, and Advocacy.
