According to the American Cancer Society, colorectal cancer is a highly preventable, treatable and often curable disease that affects men and women equally. However, Hispanic and African-American adults, age 50 and older, are at an increased risk. It is best treated when caught early through screenings, but can be deadly if caught too late. Screenings are highly recommended for individuals who have a history of one or all of the following: colorectal polyps, colorectal cancer, inflammatory bowel disease, smoking or being overweight.

For over 50 years, Al-Anon has been offering hope and help to families and friends of alcoholics. It is estimated that each alcoholic affects the lives of at least four other people... alcoholism is truly a family disease. No matter what relationship you have with an alcoholic, whether they are still drinking or not, all who have been affected by someone else’s drinking can find solutions that lead to serenity in the Al-Anon fellowship.
