#Norfolk, #VA 4/24: 2010 African-American Men's Health Forum

, Posted by CEO at 6:44 AM



2010 African-American Men's Health Forum

Faced with the daunting health disparities that impact African American men, the American Cancer Society, South Atlantic Division, is presenting the 4th Annual African American Men’s Health Forum, April 24, 2010, from 8:15 a.m. to 2:30 p.m., in the new Student Center, Norfolk State University, 700 Park Avenue. Routinely attended by more than 400 men from throughout Hampton Roads, this FREE event is designed to serve as a clarion call to African American men to take a decidedly proactive role in their own healthcare.

NFL great Bruce Smith serves as the Honorary Chair of the 2010 African American Men’s Health Forum and WVEC-TV 13 News Morning and Noon Anchor LaSalle Blanks and WKUS-FM Kiss 105.3 radio personality DJ Big Dose will serve as the Masters of Ceremonies. The keynote address will be delivered by Norfolk Circuit Court Judge Jerrauld Jones. The event will also feature an array of free health screenings, an advocacy and legislative brief by Virginia Delegates Algie T. Howell and Kenneth C. Alexander, a free luncheon, numerous exhibitors, a wealth of health literature, and free parking. The free medical screenings offered include blood pressure, blood glucose, oral cancer and HIV screenings. Additionally, vouchers will also be available for free prostate examinations.

Plenary sessions offered include in-depth review of such important health issues as Health Disparities, conducted by Norfolk State University Professor Howard Duncan, Ph.D.; Surviving Prostate Cancer, a revealing personal story by Charles W. Hill, Founding Member and 1st President, Hampton Roads Prostate Health Forum; Colon Cancer and Nutrition, presented by cancer survivor and gastroenterologist Bruce Waldholtz, M.D.; and Prostate Cancer: A Medical Perspective, featuring medical oncologist Mark T. Fleming, M.D.

The African American Men’s Health Forum is sponsored by the American Cancer Society, the Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield Foundation, Bon Secours Health Systems of Hampton Roads, Sentara Healthcare Systems, Virginia Oncology Associates, WVEC-TV, WKUS-FM, and the New Journal & Guide. On-site registration begins promptly at 8:15 a.m., but advance registration is strongly encouraged.

About the American Cancer Society

The American Cancer Society combines an unyielding passion with nearly a century of experience to save lives and end suffering from cancer. As a global grassroots force of more than three million volunteers, we fight for every birthday threatened by every cancer in every community. We save lives by helping people stay well by preventing cancer or detecting it early; helping people get well by being there for them during and after a cancer diagnosis; by finding cures through investment in groundbreaking discovery; and by fighting back by rallying lawmakers to pass laws to defeat cancer and by rallying communities worldwide to join the fight. As the nation’s largest non-governmental investor in cancer research, contributing more than $3.4 billion, we turn what we know about cancer into what we do. As a result, more than 11 million people in America who have had cancer and countless more who have avoided it will be celebrating birthdays this year. To learn more about us or to get help, call us any time, day or night, at 1-800-227-2345 or visit cancer.org.
