Outreach & Education

The goal of community outreach for the Skin Cancer Institute is to reduce skin cancer in Arizona by promoting public awareness of the disease. We want to help our community become sun safe!  In 2014, the U.S. Surgeon General himself stated the importance of outreach in the fight against skin cancer.       

Outreach and Education activities include:

  • Hosting educational events open to the community
  • Providing educational materials to individuals, schools and other organizations
  • Sun-safety training for students, educators and health care professionals
  • Program development for organizations whose employees are at high risk for skin cancer
