AHOC: A Healthy Ouachita County

03/17/2025

Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month is observed annually in March. It is a time to raise awareness about colorectal cancer, promote early detection, and encourage individuals to get screened. Colon cancer screening saves lives by finding polyps before they turn into cancer. Talk to your doctor today about getting screened.
