Man Up Mahoning Valley, a component program of the Mercy Health Foundation Mahoning Valley is designed to educate men in the Mahoning Valley about the need to be checked for prostate cancer.
Their efforts are aimed squarely at educating and encouraging the men and women of the Mahoning Valley to talk about prostate health and to share information on the importance of regular examinations for early detection to prevent prostate cancer from taking lives. They have one simple message: Man Up and get an annual examination! Routine screening and early detection are the key to surviving prostate cancer. By increasing awareness and promoting the importance of routine screening, their goal is to save lives.
