MISSION
The Arkansas Prostate Cancer Foundation (APCF) works to support improved treatment of prostate cancer in Arkansas. It does this through educating Arkansans by raising awareness, distributing resources and providing learning opportunities across the state; encouraging timely detection of prostate cancer including providing free health screenings; and engaging men and their families with personal guidance from the day of diagnosis through survivorship. APCF believes that no Arkansan should face prostate cancer alone and works daily to ensure this is a reality.
