Our Mission

The Maine Coalition to Fight Prostate Cancer is dedicated to ending the devastating impact of prostate cancer on men, their loved ones, and the State of Maine. One of the ways that we can do this is to talk to members of our communities.

This is a special opportunity for your community organization, church group, fraternal club, or veterans’ organization to become informed about prostate cancer. The members of our Speakers Bureau possess levels of patient expertise which permits them to familiarize your group with a powerful message about the risks, symptoms, diagnosis, treatment alternatives, side effects, follow-up care, and life style impact associated with prostate cancer, the most common cancer in men
