The Hawaii Prostate Cancer Coalition (HPCC) is a prostate cancer support organization, founded in 2005 by its first President, Phil Olsen.
We are affiliated with the National Alliance of State Prostate Cancer Coalitions ( NASPCC). HPCC has an Advisory Board and selected members who are knowledgeable about prostate cancer and medicine, but we do not provide medical advice.
HPCC and its individual Board Members are also allied with the Hawaii support groups of Us TOO International. US TOO provides online and person-to-person peer assistance to those with questions about prostate cancer. Local support groups are open to anyone, including spouses, without charge. Further information on these groups can be found on our Support Groups page.
