American Cancer Society: Free Colorectal Cancer Screening Kits for Rural Patients

The American Cancer Society and Color Health are working together on a program to bring free at-home colorectal cancer screenings to patients in rural areas, who often face barriers to cancer screening. This program is free for both participating health centers and patients. Color Health will provide health centers with free Fecal Immunochemical Test (FIT) kits for patients (up to 50 per site). Support to help navigate through this screening process will also be provided by Color Health. Patients and health centers will be notified of results and instructions for next steps. Even clinics not in a rural area but that serve rural patients are eligible. Any interested health centers can reach out to kacie.jankoski@cancer.org for more info.
