Oral, Head and Neck Cancer Awareness Week

Oral, Head and Neck Cancer Awareness Week® (OHANCAW), led by the Head and Neck Cancer Alliance and supported by the American Academy of Otolaryngology—Head and Neck Surgery, is April 13-19, 2020. OHANCAW is a weeklong series of events promoting awareness of oral, head, and neck cancer, highlighted by a day of free cancer screenings throughout the U.S. This year, due to the COVID-19, cancer screenings will be postponed until later in the year.
