Goal: To find lung cancer early

Our goal is to find lung cancer early, before it has a chance to grow or spread, and to increase the likelihood of successful treatment.

Hennepin Healthcare is giving free lung cancer screenings to American Indians who meet the following criteria:

• Between 55-79 years old
• Identify as American Indian
• Have 30 years of smoking:
  • 1 pack a day for 30 years, or
  • 2 packs a day for 15 years, or
  • 3 packs a day for 10 years
• Current smoker or have quit smoking within the last 15 years

This program is funded through grant support by A Breath of Hope Lung Foundation. All qualified participants who complete the screening will receive a gas card worth $25. Gas cards can be obtained in the Comprehensive Cancer Center.
