About Prostequity
Our Mission
We’re on a bold mission to close gaps along the prostate cancer continuum of care to ensure that all men, regardless of race, gender, or sexual orientation, receive equitable access to the highest quality of care along the prostate cancer continuum of care. Despite a deeper scientific understanding of prostate cancer - as well as new therapies that improve survival - the prostate cancer care continuum is rife with disparities. Prostequity wants to change this.
Our Why
Despite a deeper scientific understanding of prostate cancer - as well as new therapies that improve survival - the cancer care continuum is rife with disparities. Black men have the highest rates of prostate cancer diagnosis in the United States [site source] and are twice as likely to die of the disease compared to other racial groups. Additionally, recent publications show that gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men also face unique challenges that have been insufficiently addressed. Prostequity wants to change this.
Our Team
Our team consists of locally based, culturally competent patient navigators and nurses dedicated to meeting you where you are. We provide the clinical guidance and support you need to navigate the prostate cancer continuum with confidence and peace of mind.
