Colorectal Pop-up Events

As a Good Down There Ambassador, NSO is distributing screening kits and educational materials. Kit distribution focuses on African American/Black people, 45 years of age or older.

---

Each kit includes a complimentary Fecal Immunochemical Test (FIT) which tests human hemoglobin (blood) in the stool. A positive result can indicate a colorectal cancer or polyp that needs to be removed. Addressing a positive result early is essential to minimize the chances of a bad health outcome in the future.

If you know of anyone who meets the criteria without health insurance or the means to get tested, please direct them to contact NSO at corporateaffairs@nso-mi.org for a free screening kit.
