There are a number of resources available to help prevent, identify, and live with melanoma. Here are a few that we have found to be particularly useful.
Please click here to view and download an informative resource to help learn about the ABCDEs of melanoma, which refers to the characteristics that are used by dermatologists to identify melanomas.
Youth education is the highest priority for our Foundation. Canada’s youth do not receive nearly enough education in our schools and communities about the severe and deadly risks of overexposure to the sun and UV rays. We have partnered with the Melanoma Network of Canada to lead the development of a national program on sun safety and sun awareness for youth in junior kindergarten to grade 12.
