The Skin Cancer Foundation is in need of volunteers to help run Destination Healthy Skin!

About Destination Healthy Skin

Destination Healthy Skin is the Skin Cancer Foundation’s mobile skin cancer screening program. Our Destination Healthy Skin RV travels around the country each year, and we recruit local providers to provide free skin exams onboard our RV, in retrofitted exam rooms. Over the years, we’ve worked with hundreds of dermatologists and provided more than 33,000 free skin cancer screenings. We welcome dermatologists and qualified PAs and NPs as volunteers. Detailed volunteer requirements can be found at the bottom of the email. The screening events are heavily promoted in local media to encourage participation and may result in the opportunity for interviews with local TV stations, websites and newspapers. To see what past volunteers have to say about the program, please visitDestinationHealthySkin.org/volunteer.”
