| 7:00 AM - 12:30 PM | Cancer Prevention Study-3 (CPS-3)
If you could prevent even one person from hearing the words, "you have cancer," would you? Now is your chance. The American Cancer Society Cancer Prevention Study-3 (CPS-3) is now enrolling participants. You can help prevent cancer for future generations so that your children, grandchildren, nieces, or nephews never have to hear those words.
The American Cancer Society's Epidemiology Research Program is inviting men and women between the ages of 30 and 65 years who have no personal history of cancer to join this historic research study. The ultimate goal is to enroll at least 300,000 adults from various racial and ethnic backgrounds from across the U.S. By joining CPS-3, you can help us understand how to prevent cancer, which will save lives and give people more of their most precious resource - time. More time with their families and friends, more memories, more celebrations and more birthdays.
Saturday, May 18, 2013, 7 am to 1230 pm
Presented by: American Cancer Society and Parrish Medical Center
Parrish Healthcare Center at Port St. John

| 7:00 AM - 4:00 PM | ACS Cancer Prevention Study
ACS CANCER PREVENTION STUDY-3: Research today for a cancer-free tomorrow.
We all want to know we have made a difference in the life of another. This year our community has a unique opportunity to make an impact on the lives of many.
The third Cancer Prevention Study of the American Cancer Society will be enrolling participants at Parrish Medical Center. As part of enrollment, individuals who choose to participate will simply fill out a comprehensive survey packet about health history, provide a small blood sample (to be collected by trained phlebotomists) and provide a waist measure. Enrollment will take approximately 20-30 minutes. From that point forward, study participants will be followed over time to update information via periodic, mailed surveys. Your involvement in CPS-3 will help American Cancer Society researchers understand the causes of, and ultimately determine ways to prevent cancer.
If you are willing to make a long-term commitment to the study (which involves completing follow-up surveys periodically over the next 20-30 years), are between the ages of 30 and 65 years old and have never been diagnosed with cancer, then you will want to participate in this study. If you don’t meet the eligibility requirements, your significant participation comes from telling everyone you know about the opportunity to help prevent cancer.
