2024 Skin Cancer Awareness Resources

03 March, 2024

Skin cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer in the U.S., with thousands of cases of squamous cell, basal cell and melanoma -- the deadliest form of skin cancer -- diagnosed each year. We can help to prevent many of these cancers by promoting sun safety, encouraging people to keep an eye on changes in their skin, and educating people about the dangers of tanning beds.

Access our quick facts and resources to share information with your community in May, Skin Cancer Awareness Month, and year-round.
