About The Health Initiative for Men
In an effort to help
inspire men to have an annual physical and to raise awareness about
men’s health issues such as prostate cancer and colo-rectal cancer,
Griffin Hospital launched the Health Initiative for Men, a community-wide preventive healthcare effort.
The goal of the
HiM is to influence men to see their physician annually, and to be
screened for various diseases that respond better to treatment if
detected early.
For more information about HiM, visit
