Elder Network is a registered 501(c)3 nonprofit that was formed in 1988. We have been serving Dodge County since 2022, and are working to provide the community with supportive services and information for older adults and caregivers. We want to take the time to honor those living with breast cancer and bring awareness to early cancer screening. According to the Minnesota Department of Health, “when cancer is caught early, it is easier to treat.” Sage, a Minnesota Cancer Screening Program, offers FREE breast and cervical cancer screenings for Minnesotans who meet eligibility requirements.
Call 1-888-643-2584 or email health.sage@state.mn.us for more information to learn about early screening and its benefits. Our Dodge County staff member, Pa Cha Vang, is available to contact for caregiver support, educational opportunities, and referrals. Feel free to contact Pa Cha at 507-285-5272 or pachav@elder-network.org.
