National Alliance of State Prostate Cancer Coalitions
Report from the 16th Annual Meeting and Awards Dinner
January 28, 2022 - January 30, 2022
Hotel Monaco, Washington, D.C.
“Participate and Educate”
The 16th Annual Meeting & Awards Dinner of the National Alliance of State Prostate Cancer Coalitions, also known as The Prostate Cancer Alliance, was held again at the esteemed Hotel Monaco in Washington, D.C. on the site of the original General Post Office Building (circa 1840), from Friday, January 28, 2022 through 3:00 p.m. on Sunday, January 30, 2022.
Despite numerous delays caused by the pandemic, this Annual Meeting began our 18th year of helping prostate cancer patients and their families. State prostate cancer organizations – coalitions, foundations, associations and other entities - from across the entire United States sent at least one, sometimes two or three representatives to the 16th Annual Meeting.
The expectation - as always - was that at the conclusion of the Annual Meeting, all attendees would return to their respective constituencies and then disseminate throughout their states, all of the educational, scientific and practical information they’d received - thereby helping patients everywhere.
Annual Meeting Sponsors sent representatives to the 16th Annual Meeting & Gala to learn, to network and to work with state prostate cancer organizations, as well as to distribute their materials. There were a record 20 sponsors for this year’s event, and NASPCC is very grateful for their support which helped us to organize and hold this stellar Annual Meeting.
