Partners Program
breast and prostate health"Do It Together: Do It For Each Other"
The PCCNC Partners Program reminds couples of the importance of taking care of each other by making men and women aware of warning signs and the importance of early detection for both cancers.
- Couples 35+ are approaching a high risk age for both cancers
- Both cancers impact intimate and emotional relationships
- Financial burden associated with cancers effects the family
- In most cases, the spouse/partner is a caregiver
 | Circles of Love is a resource and support program designed with the caregiver in mind. The purpose of the program is to acknowledge, empower and support companions, partners, spouses and family members of men with prostate cancer. |
