MEETINGS

First Wednesday evening of each month  (6:30-8:30 PM) at Sorenson Unity Center  1383 South, 900 West                             Salt Lake City, UT 84114

We meet on the first Wednesday of every month at 6:30pm for about two hours except when at or close to a holiday. The annual picnic is similarly on the 1st Wednesday, usually in July and in a nearby Canyon.

Up-to-date information is presented by experts from a range of professions, such as: Urology, Radiology, Oncology, Nursing, Physician Assistant, Psychology, Social Work, etc.

Topics might be: the latest information on PSA testing; information on when and when not to get treatment; choice of treatments; the physical & emotional aftereffects of treatment.

After the presentation, men and families can raise issues about their own process of diagnosis, choice of treatment, struggles with a side effect, etc. These discussions are open & confidential as we want our members to feel comfortable telling their story.
