The Knowledge Net is an extension of our parent organization, The Prostate Net. For 11 years, The Prostate Net has provided education and information through the internet, empowering consumers, patients, survivors, their families and caregivers to make the appropriate decisions about prostate cancer. Our programs use both traditional communication methods and cutting edge technology, such as PodCasts and cell casts.
The Prostate Net is helping bridge the gaps caused by socio-economics and race by making information about prostate cancer detection and treatment accessible through this website, Knowledge Net and other programs. The Knowledge Net, in particular, enables The Prostate Net to place a computer terminal at a public location within a community to distribute prostate cancer information through technology.
The Knowledge Net also provides data to healthcare professionals and cancer researchers about the populations accessing the site, the type of information they are viewing as well as interpreting the needs of those communities. This information will provide you with some of those tools and guidance that can be employed on a local basis to address particular issues for your community.
Coupled with this has been our vision of integrating value deliverables that benefit all stakeholders in the community, so that we can customize a program that can meet your needs in research, program development, community education, etc. Contact us to discuss your requirements and objectives.
Worldwide Prostate Cancer Coalition A global confederation of prostate cancer advocacy groups and patient service organizations that will share information and initiatives to increase standard of patient care.
