I've already had two federal grants terminated and face a 33% pay cut due to future terminations. It's painful, but not as painful as the conversations I'm having every day with brilliant trainees in graduate school and postdoctoral positions who see little future for themselves in US science.

Another comment from a UMich parent:

Teamwork is the key to success! From reaching 30,000+ people at state fairs to tackling barriers in men’s health, every volunteer, team member, and partner is vital in raising awareness and saving lives. #Teamwork #CRCequity #StrongerTogether

At the Colorectal Cancer Equity Foundation, knowledge is power. With CRC projected to be the leading cancer killer for those under 50 by 2030, we must act now. Visit CRCandMe.com for essential resources on symptoms, risk factors, and facts. #CRCequity #NeverTooYoung

Our Founder has spent nearly 20 years leading research to increase colorectal cancer equity. From state fairs to communities nationwide, his work tackles barriers and raises awareness—none of it possible without dedicated volunteers! #CRCequity #HealthEquity
