It’s GreatNonProfits time of year for AnCan participants!
Each year we need 10 new endorsements to retain our GreatNonProfits Seal, so if you’re relatively new &/or have not endorsed us previously, now’s the time. Just click https://greatnonprofits.org/org/ancan-foundation and tell the short version of why you love AnCan Foundation…. THANK YOU!

AnCan is grateful to the following sponsors for making this recording possible: Bayer, Novartis, Johnson and Johnson, Myriad Genetics, Telix, and Blue Earth Diagnostics.

Active Surveillance (AS) for low-risk prostate cancer involves unique challenges compared to other treatments. This online support group is designed for men and their caregivers who are currently on or considering AS. We hold four meetings monthly, recording only the second and fourth sessions. Our discussions cover a wide range of topics, including anxiety management, biopsy experiences, and the decision-making process around continuing or discontinuing AS. Newcomers are given priority to share their experiences, so we encourage you to join us.

You can find out more about our 12 monthly prostate cancer meetings at https://ancan.org/prostate-cancer/.
