Cancer and the Family

The public is invited to the Wallingford Public Library Monday, April 9 at 7:30 p.m. for a program by Keith M.

Dr. Belizzi has master’s degrees in public health and psychology and a Ph.D. in human development and family studies from the University of Connecticut.  His presentation is a discussion of his own research and personal experiences with cancer.  This program is co-sponsored by American Association of University Women Meriden branch, and the UConn College of Liberal Arts and Sciences. A brief AAUW business meeting will precede Dr. Belizzi’s presentation.
