Welcome to DetecTogether
Healthcare Innovator of the Year — Trailblazing a national, patient-powered movement for early cancer detection and saving lives.
ABOUT US
Tricia Laursen, Detectogether's President and Executive Director, recognized by Worcester Business Journal for leading the movement toward earlier action and better outcomes.
Most cancers are not found through routine screening. DetecTogether fills the gap between screening and diagnosis by teaching people 3 Steps Detect® skills to recognize early warning signs, take action sooner and work effectively with healthcare providers. Early detection is an advantage everyone deserves. Together, we're equipping people with the knowledge, confidence, and self-advocacy skills that lead to earlier diagnoses and better outcomes.
