Cancer Conversations Episode 36

Everyone has a story. And in Kentucky, it is likely that you know at least one person whose story involves cancer – whether you are living with the disease yourself or supporting a friend or loved one through their cancer journey.  On this episode of Cancer Conversations, Dr. Pam Hull shares about the recent Kentucky Cancer Needs Assessment. The Assessment will help us understand why cancer is so prevalent in Kentucky and steps we can take to change the cancer rates trajectory.  She also shares some positive news about Kentucky health factors.

Cancer Conversations on Talking FACS is a partnership project between Family and Consumer Sciences Extension and the Markey Cancer Center.
