Program areas at Zero - The End of Prostate Cancer

Education & Awareness - The ZERO Prostate Cancer Run/Walk Series is the largest event series dedicated to men's health in the U.S. For more than a decade, the series has helped raise awareness and unite men and their families across the country as a powerful force in the fight against prostate cancer. ZERO helps lead the national dialogue on prostate cancer through our awareness campaigns, social media, website, blog, and podcast. Our regional chapters are the boots on the ground to engage local communities, facilitate grassroots action, and provide support and education.
Patient Support - ZERO offers direct support for prostate cancer patients and families including free customized case management (ZERO360), peer-to-peer mentorship, transportation, a nationwide network of local support groups, and online resources. Our ZERO360 team of experienced case managers help patients access financial resources, cut through insurance and Medicare red tape, and find emotional support. ZERO works to eliminate racial disparities by making a tangible difference in the lives of men at highest risk of prostate cancer through greater access to high quality healthcare, support in navigating the care process, and improved prostate cancer outcomes.In addition to providing critical patient support, ZERO educates millions of men and their families with disease information through our events, website, social media, printed materials, videos, webinars, blogs, and podcasts.Additionally, ZERO believes in the importance of peer-to-peer support programs to help improve mental health outcomes for men diagnosed with prostate cancer and their loved ones. Peer-to-peer support programs at ZERO come in multiple forms including online and location specific. These groups allow men and caregivers affected by prostate cancer to gain emotional support by providing a safe place to discuss concerns, feelings and hardships experienced due to prostate cancer.
Advocacy - As the national leader in prostate cancer advocacy, ZERO protects and grows federal research funding, currently at $110M, that has led to several key prostate cancer treatments for extending and improving the lives of patients. For more than twenty years, our annual Summit has brought together thousands of advocates from around the country to make prostate cancer a priority within our federal government, our state legislatures, and our communities. ZERO's advocacy initiatives have resulted in improving access to care, new state-level laws to eliminate cost-sharing related to screening, and legislative efforts to benefit those at the highest risk for the disease including the Black community and Veterans.
Research - By creating our own research fund, ZERO directly supports cutting-edge research that offers the best return on investment, with a track record of expediting life-saving treatments from the laboratory to patients.
