Empowerment is what Us TOO is about. Equipping men with support and unbiased information to make decisions about their disease. We’ve learned many lessons with our experiences with prostate cancer. We support men wanting to learn more about their prostate health status.
We want you to take action by submitting your thoughtful comments. Engage your network of fellow survivor warriors, friends, family, coworkers and neighbors to submit comments. We need THOUSANDS to raise their voices, not the hundreds the prostate cancer community has typically responded with in the past. This is our time. Make your voice be heard. More than ever, your action is urgently needed!
