2017 Dialogue for ActionŽ On Cancer Screening & Prevention

Dialogue for Action® is a "can't-miss" annual national conference that brings a diversity of stakeholders together to discuss the best ways to reinforce cancer screening, prevention and risk reduction initiatives in their communities. The Wednesday through Friday schedule is packed with unique opportunities for participants to immerse themselves in engaging presentations, facilitated conversations, relationship building and more. Participants find the best results when they take the “Dialogue” back to their communities and workplaces and take actionable steps to make a difference.
