SPOHNC was founded by oral cancer survivor, Nancy Leupold in 1991, when few resources existed for this patient population. Today, SPOHNC is a vital source of support, education, and hope for patients, caregivers, survivors, and friends. The Outreach Program includes over 100+ CHAPTER SUPPORT GROUPS throughout the U.S, a National Survivor Volunteer Network whereby patients are matched according to their diagnosis and treatment. A state of the art monthly newsletter, informative e-postcards and additional resources listed on our website.

🦷 October is National Dental Hygiene Month!

💡 Did you know? Regular oral health screenings can play an important role in the early detection of oral cavity and some oropharyngeal cancers.

💉 HPV vaccine = cancer prevention! The HPV vaccine helps prevent infections that can lead to HPV-related oropharyngeal cancers, which affect the back of the throat, including the base of the tongue and tonsils.

✨ This month, we celebrate dental hygienists and their vital role in promoting oral health while raising awareness about the importance of preventive care.

🩺 Early detection matters. Talk with your dental professional about any persistent mouth sores, red or white patches, lumps, difficulty swallowing, or other unusual changes.

❤️ At SPOHNC, we believe awareness, education, and prevention can make a difference.

☝🏼Share this message to help spread awareness and encourage others to prioritize their oral health!

Our SPOHNC Dallas, TX Chapter Support Group attended the Texas Oncology Foundation’s Survive & Thrive event in Georgetown, TX, on September 18. They had the opportunity to meet and connect with patients who have walked a similar path.

From the emotions of diagnosis to the challenges of treatment and the strength it takes to move forward, cancer journeys often share so many similarities—regardless of the type of cancer. ❤️ Sharing stories, listening, laughing, and learning from one another reminded everyone how much comfort comes from knowing someone understands.

💙A heartfelt thank-you to our Dallas Chapter and everyone who attended this special event!
