Minority Prostate Cancer Awareness Action Team
Throughout the state of North Carolina African-American community leaders are coming together to join the North Carolina Minority Prostate Cancer Awareness Action Team. The team focuses on reducing and/or eliminating the disparate impact that prostate cancer has on African-American families and communities.
