Meet the team

Our mission is to improve men’s health through education, screenings, referral options, and advocacy to identify health risks and to take early action to reduce those risks.

Our vision is to lessen the gaps between life expectancy of men and women by helping them understand the importance of early detection and intervention.

Our belief is that all men are entitled to improve quality and longevity of their lives.

A WORD OF WISDOM FROM A CHAMPION

“During my urologic residency I came to understand the limited level of awareness which existed among men – and the community in general – regarding men’s health issues. I decided that the best way to address this need was by community outreach. Kofi Annan said that “Knowledge is power, and information is liberating,” and nothing could be more true when it comes to your health. This is also the heart of what CHAMPS is about: by providing education and promoting awareness we want to help prevent illnesses. CHAMPS wishes to offer community members opportunities to learn about their health and to make changes in their lifestyle that will lead to improved quality of life.
