Black Men and Prostate Cancer: RCCA Oncologists Discuss 5 Facts to Know and 1 Step to Take
While prostate cancer can affect men of any racial or ethnic background, it poses a particular threat to Black men.
This holiday season, the Township of Howell is asking residents and local businesses to consider adopting a family in need in the Howell community. The goal of this community program is to assign each volunteer sponsor an “adopted” family to provide that family’s children (age toddlers to 17 years old) with a brighter holiday season. To assist in accomplishing this goal, Regional Cancer Care Associates of Howell (RCCA) has “adopted” two local Howell families.
