Over the past several decades, the incidence of melanoma the most serious form of skin cancer has steadily increased in the United States. From 1995 to 2004, melanoma has increased by more than 1 percent per year in this country in sharp contrast to overall cancer rates that have steadily decreased by 0.6 percent per year during this time. While dermatologists and other public health officials work together to try to reverse this alarming trend, key findings from a successful multi-faceted intervention program designed to increase sun-safe behavior in children could play an important role in decreasing melanoma in future generations.
