November is Lung Cancer Awareness Month

Filed in archive Miscellany , News on November 4, 2006

In observation of lung cancer Awareness Month, the American Legacy Foundation® and the National Association of Broadcasters has recently launched a new national public service campaign: Code Blue for Lung Cancer.

The Code Blue campaign is a comprehensive national effort to raise awareness about preventing lung cancer and increase survival rates for those struggling with it.

Code Blue includes a 30-minute documentary that explores the devastating impact of lung cancer on four families and discusses how to reduce lung cancer deaths, primarily through early diagnosis and by quitting smoking.

The campaign, in both English and Spanish, also includes radio and television public service announcements, a guidebook for local broadcasters, and an accompanying online component.
