9/11 Chinese Language Guide to Prostate Cancer

Twenty-five years after 9/11, the health story extends beyond rescue workers to Chinatown residents, restaurant workers, cleaners, and others who returned to homes and jobs near the World Trade Center. Chinese speakers deserve health information in a familiar language and clear steps for seeking care, understanding research on exposure and prostate cancer.

Malecare’s English and Traditional Chinese booklet connects concerns about past exposure with practical help today: documenting work and residential histories, discussing prostate testing, requesting medical interpreters, and seeking an eligibility review for World Trade Center health services.

After 9/11, Chinatown residents went home. Restaurant workers returned to kitchens. Cleaners removed dust from buildings near the World Trade Center. Everyone deserves to know about their exposure, their prostate health, and where to turn for care in their own language

Malecare’s English and Traditional Chinese booklet offers a starting point for reporting.
