The Arkansas Prostate Cancer Foundation is dedicated to helping the men of Arkansas beat the odds through education, free prostate cancer screenings, advocacy and its statewide network of support groups.
Remember If you know the risk, you can beat the odds.
NOW THE RISK; BEAT THE ODDS.Get the Facts about Prostate Cancer.
Prostate cancer can happen to men of all races and ages. One out of every six men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer in his lifetime. African-American men and men with close family members who have had prostate cancer are at an even greater risk.
Prostate cancer is the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths among men. 238,590 American men are forecast to be diagnosed with prostate cancer this year, and 29,720 are estimated to die from this potentially deadly disease.
Because prostate cancer usually has no symptoms in its early stage, men must be educated about the risk of the disease while it is survivable. Men can only make informed decisions if they have information on the positive and negative aspects of screening, diagnosis and treatment.
