PCSO Awareness Presentations
We offer organizations in Ottawa, Eastern Ontario, and the Outaouais the opportunity to learn how Prostate Cancer Support Ottawa helps men and their families affected by prostate cancer.
Although prostate cancer is highly treatable when detected early, it remains the second leading cause of cancer death among Canadian men. In 2025, an estimated 30,400 men in Canada were diagnosed with prostate cancer, including more than 1,400 men in the regions served by PCS Ottawa.
Our Awareness Team is available to present to interested organizations. We provide a brief presentation followed by discussion and questions on prostate cancer, including diagnosis, treatment options, side effects, rehabilitation, and the services offered by Prostate Cancer Support Ottawa. Presentations are available in English or French.
To book a presentation, email .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address) or call 613‑828‑0762.
