When is National Colon Cancer Awareness Month?

From March 1 to March 31.

What is National Colon Cancer Awareness Month?

National Colon Cancer Awareness Month, observed every March since it was declared by President Bill Clinton in 2000, raises awareness of the third most common cancer in the United States and the importance of early detection through screenings. The month promotes conversations with doctors, fundraising for research, and sharing stories of patients, survivors, and caregivers to reduce stigma around a topic many find hard to discuss.
