Corporate Relationship Policy

The Prevent Cancer Foundation’s mission is to empower people to stay ahead of cancer through prevention and early detection.

Note: The Prevent Cancer Foundation seeks to use language that is inclusive of all and avoids unnecessary expressions of sex or gender. However, text that is based on research findings which specify gender, for example, uses the language dictated by the research. Guest authors, including researchers, medical experts and cancer survivors, may use the language they utilize for their work or are most comfortable with for their personal story.
