What if you could prevent even one family from hearing the words “you have cancer”?

This year, you can fight back against cancer by enrolling in the American Cancer Society’s new research study called the Cancer Prevention Study-3 (CPS-3). By joining CPS-3, you can help researchers better understand the genetic, environmental and lifestyle factors that cause or prevent cancer, which will ultimately save lives.

Saint Clare’s Cancer Prevention and Early Detection Fair - February 11th 10am - 2:30pm

• Presentations and Resources on current cancer prevention strategies.
• Hear up-to-date info on cancer screening.

How can you participate?

Enrollment will take place at Saint Clare’s Hospital/Denville in the Urban Auditorium on Saturday, February 11, 2012 from 10 a.m. - 2:30.pm.

To schedule your appointment, go to: www.seeuthere.com/cps3enroll/schs. Soon after scheduling your enrollment appointment, you will be asked to go online and complete your first, most comprehensive survey. This survey must be completed prior to your appointment and will take approximately 30-45 minutes to complete.

At your appointment, you will be asked to:

• sign an informed consent form complete a brief survey
• provide a waist circumference measurement
• give a small blood sample (similar to a doctor’s visit). The blood sample will be taken by a certified, trained phlebotomist.
• Your appointment should last approximately 20 - 30 minutes.

Upon completion of these two steps, we will send periodic follow-up surveys to update your information and annual newsletters with study updates and results.

Join us anytime between 10 a.m. and 2:30 p.m. Refreshments will be served.
