Annual Report

In the interest of fiscal responsibility, PCC did not produce a printed annual report for 2011. We simplified the process by simply posting our detailed financial statements on our website, which can be found here. It is our intention to produce a full annual report, available online and in print, every other year. 2012 will be the next year in which the report will be available in this format.

Our Voice

Many PCCN News readers will be familiar with Our Voice, a magazine for men with prostate cancer published by Parkhurst Publishing and endorsed by PCCN and the Canadian Urological Association.

Along with updates on the latest medical and research information, Our Voice draws upon reader input for some of its editorial content. Men and their partners are invited to submit questions to be answered by specialists from the magazine's editorial board or other healthcare experts, or to share their personal stories. The online version of Our Voice also features regular listings of Canadian support groups in each province. To help keep the list current, support groups are encouraged to send their updated contact information to Parkhurst. Support groups will also receive 10 copies of each new issue, upon request.
