Who We Are

E.R.I.C. was started to encourage youth to be active, aware and prepared, and to talk about sports, their bodies, and the sometimes very scary “C-word,” cancer!

Our stories and experiences may differ but our goal is the same: to inform everyone about the growing epidemic that is cancer. Our team is strong-willed and passionate about working towards a cure and an end to this deadly disease. Meet Team E.R.I.C.
