Understanding Cancer in Virginia's Fire Service (Room 1D)

The Company Officers Section of the VFCA will host three panel members: one each from the Firefighter Cancer Support Network and the International Firefighter Cancer Foundation; and a recent cancer survivor. Each panelist will speak about their respective understanding of the cancer puzzle. Panelist will answer preselected questions in addition to questions from the attendees. Join this group as they work to gather the pieces of research, prevention and support available on a state level. The goal of the program is to educate Virginia’s fire service about cancer, its prevention, and if necessary, how to cope with a personal cancer diagnosis.
