North Carolina HBCU Strong Rally

PHEN’s North Carolina Community Rally events invited men ages 40 and older to learn about the benefits and risks of early detection and to receive free PSA screening blood tests (No Finger Exam).

Each event included free prostate cancer screenings from Labcorp Corporation and educational discussions on early detection and treatment options. (No Fingerstick)

PHEN was encouraged by the strong turnout at the Rally events. 158 men were screened. The effort expanded access to early detection, while helping men who may not have otherwise been tested.

Over 300 people left the events with critical information, allowing them to make informed decisions about their prostate cancer care.
