Fran Turns Heads at the Democratic National Convention

Our very own Fran Drescher, President and Visionary of Cancer Schmancer, spent four very busy days participating in the events of the Democratic National Convention. There, she was able to scope out the convention scene, reach out to hundreds of women, and play a part in political history!

Read on for my exclusive interview with Jordan Brown, Cancer Schmancer’s Director of Policy & Public Affairs, and his experience with Fran Drescher in Denver at the Democratic National Convention.

Gynecologic Cancer Awareness Month 2007

I'm fresh off of my trip to D.C. in observance of Gynecologic Cancer Awareness Month. In one week’s time, we accomplished more than you could imagine. The Cancer Schmancer team met with Senators, Congresswomen (and men!) and reminded them how important it is to fully fund "Johanna's Law," also known as the Gynecologic Education and Awareness Act. This funding will allow the CDC to launch a national campaign to educate women about gynecologic cancers. It's about time!

Back from DC

We just got back from DC on Sunday night, where we had wonderful success in getting support to begin new initiatives on two fronts. One will be to replace the archaic manual pelvic with the more state of the art and effective transvaginal ultrasound. The other initiative will be to create an industry standard for women’s beauty products and, in so doing, eliminate the carcinogens presently found in many formulas. We are also working with the state of California to make the transvaginal ultrasound mandate and become the first state in the US to do so.
