"The American Cancer Society is aware of the tremendous need for adequate and culturally sensitive cervical cancer education among Hispanic/Latino communities. Therefore, the Society's South Atlantic Division, in partnership with The Spirit Foundation, helped to develop this cervical cancer town. We are proud to be a supporter of this project so that together we can reach not only women of all ages, but families, and in particular, young people who may be at risk of getting the Human Papilloma Virus or cervical cancer. We at the American Cancer Society believe in the power of making cancer education accessible to everyone as a way to prevent one of the most preventable cancers: cervical cancer."
Paula Mohan, Chief Executive Officer American Cancer Society, South Atlantic Division, Inc
