<p class="MsoNormal">As a part of Colorectal Cancer awareness month we will be sending out an email to everyone who has helped us with the campaign so far. This includes spokespeople, research partners, audience experts, coalition members in eastern Oregon
and in Clatsop County, Cancer Registrars across the state, PEBB Staywell Coordinators and others. The email I will be sending is below (and attached for those who prefer a word version). As many of these individuals and organization are your partners as well,
I want you to know what they will be receiving. <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">People are much more likely to get screened if they’re encouraged by someone they know and trust.
