Public health programs
Dermatologists care deeply about the effects that skin conditions have on their patients’ lives. That’s why they have helped develop these public health programs.

One blistering sunburn during childhood or adolescence can nearly double a person's chance of developing melanoma. That's why the AAD offers grants to help build permanent shade structures where children learn and play.

These professional, dermatologist-approved handouts and videos make it easy to share tips. Use them to reach people in your community.
