Our Family, Our Health, Our Community
National Black Family Cancer Awareness Week (#BlackFamCan) encourages Black individuals and families to take charge of your health by learning more about cancer prevention, screening, early detection, treatment options, and access to care.
In 2027, Case CCC hosts the third annual Black Family Cancer Awareness Week Block Party, transforming the streets around E. 66th and Chester Avenue into a space for conversation, connection, and community. All are welcome to attend, learn about, and access cancer prevention and screening, local health resources, support services, cancer information, and care.
Open conversations about health choices can help individuals detect cancer earlier, access care sooner, better understand their options, and take steps to protect their health and the health of their families.
Thank you for a great 2026 event!
