Nevada Cancer Control Summit
Whitney Peak Hotel, Reno, Nevada
August 23-24, 2024
​
The Nevada Cancer Control Summit is a statewide conference featuring sessions on topics across the cancer continuum. It brings together physicians, nurses, advocates, survivors, administrators, and more to share cutting-edge information, update practitioners on the latest topics in cancer care, and strengthen the coalition to further cancer control efforts in Nevada. The Summit offers continuing education credits for physicians, nurses, cancer registry professionals, and oftentimes credits for other specialty areas.

Another Proud Donor to Our Music Closet Program
Maria P. Collins
Pictured Left to Right: Dr. Beverly Wells, one of our Music Coordinators and Maria Collins, the Music Closet Donor. A special Thanks to Anita Cook, Music Closet Coordinator and Cheryl Ballard who assisted in coordinating the transaction.
August 2024:To accomplish our mission and goals of nurturing and supporting young people, we want to help cultivate the next upcoming crop of young artists by providing Musical Instruments to them as a donation. Many children don’t participate in school bands because they can’t afford an instrument or there is a shortage of instruments available for loan.
We are in the process of accumulating various instruments use. We only want usable items, not broken ones. Interested families who need instruments can contact Anita Cook at (702) 844-3851.

June 18, 2024: Archwell Health
B & A's team of Community Health Workers signed up 23 women for Mammogram Screenings at Archwell's Juneteenth Health Fair.
The event was held at the Owens office located in one of the underserved neighborhoods in the Greater Las Vegas area. B & A's Community Health Workers (CHW's) signed up 23 of the 28 women who visited our table for mammogram screenings. Thanks to grants from the Nevada Cancer Coalition and The State of Nevada Division of Public and Behavioral Health, B & A has the supplies and educational materials to educate and navigate. Six of our volunteers have been certified by the Nevada Certification Board as CHW's.
