Tan Less, Shine More

Despite health risk warnings on tanning devices and bans in some states restricting teens under 18 from using indoor tanning, trends suggest teen usage of indoor tanning increases dramatically during prom season - threatening teens' long term health and increasing their risk for deadly melanoma. LessCancer.org and students at Highland School, Warrenton, Virginia, are asking you to commit to not using indoor tanning before prom, or ever. Teachers, let us know how you will celebrate your students who "Tan Less, Shine More" at tanlessshinemore@gmail.com

LET’S FIGHT CANCER WITH A FOCUS ON PREVENTION

Less Cancer’s work to raise awareness about health and environment spans a wide range of issues, including specific contaminants, pollution sources, and healthy lifestyle choices, such as diet, exercise, and nutrition. While we work to protect all communities, our approach is particularly relevant to at-risk populations, such as families and children in low-income communities. Our ultimate goal is to raise awareness of prevention and reduce incidences of diagnosed cancer in all people.
