More than 21,000 men in the Mid-Atlantic region will be diagnosed with prostate cancer in 2017, with more than 3,300 local men expected to die this year alone.
ZERO supports men and families in their own backyards by providing patient-centric programs in addition to our Run/Walk events. Our Mid-Atlantic Chapter Director, Shawn leads the charge in Delaware, Maryland, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Virginia, and Washington, D.C. If you’re in the Mid-Atlantic and want to get more involved in prostate cancer, a disease that affects one in eight American men, contact Shawn.
