Dear PCRI Supporter,

Our mission is helping patients and caregivers research their treatment options, empowering them to make more informed decisions, and to detect industry biases that don’t align with their needs. We want to help patients learn about prostate cancer quickly and efficiently. PCRI is accomplishing this mission in three new ways that I want to highlight: First, a YouTube channel; second, live webinars; and third, our support group outreach program. All of these new programs are made possible by the generous support that you give to PCRI.

YouTube Channel
I encourage you to check out our YouTube channel. Just type “PCRI” into the query line in YouTube and our videos will come up. You can also access these new videos at our website at www.pcri.org. We regularly release new content that is relevant to prostate cancer patients and caregivers, providing answers to frequently asked questions. We also provide an overview of the medical system that surrounds prostate cancer to help you get up to speed on available treatments, scans, and procedures. 

Over the past few months, Dr. Scholz and I have been translating the Prostate Cancer Staging Guide from a print format into a video series. So far, we have posted over 60 new videos on prostate cancer. In these short 5-minute videos you get a quick snapshot of each of the 15 stages of prostate cancer. In addition, there are videos on how to reduce or eliminate treatment-related side effects. These videos help you contextualize your status so that you can pick the best treatment, the one appropriate for your stage. Once you understand your situation, you can work efficiently with your doctors to achieve a customized treatment plan, even in the limited time frame that constrains most doctors. 


Please subscribe! We continue to increase our video output with interviews of prostate cancer patients, support group leaders, and leading medical professionals. As our subscription base grows, our visibility on YouTube increases and this leads more viewers to our channel. Your involvement will magnify the impact on other prostate cancer patients and caregivers.

Live Webinars
We are taking our popular Prostate Cancer Conference format online! June 26th, we are hosting our first webinar on the topic of men's health. Click here to RSVP. This event will feature a presentation from a medical professional, followed by live Q&A from the online audience. You will be able to get the latest information from leading professionals and get your questions answered, all from the convenience of your computer. We plan to continue doing webinars every few months. Also, our free e-newsletter will keep you posted on upcoming dates and topics. Sign up at www.pcri.org.

Support Group Outreach
Support groups are requesting additional educational materials and presentations to help their attendees get answers to questions. PCRI is sending educational packages containing videos, our staging guide, newsletters, and our educational brochures. Having trustworthy information is essential and generates interest and elevates the level of discussion and improves the support group experience. If you have a support group and would like these materials sent to you free of charge, please contact us at 
info@pcri.org to learn more.

Your financial support positively impacts the lives of tens of thousands of people who reach out to us each year. Please consider donating and subscribing to our youtube channel via our website www.pcri.org. Your generosity makes all these new services possible!

Sincerely,
Peter Scholz 
PCRI Creative Director
