October - Breast Cancer Awareness Month

October is recognized as National Breast Cancer Awareness Month thanks to a special partnership of national public service organizations, professional medical associations and government agencies that work together to promote breast cancer awareness, share information on the disease, and provide greater access to screening services. This year the NBCAM organization is celebrating 32 years of awareness, education and empowerment.

In honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, The National Breast Cancer Foundation is giving helpful guide about breast health to every woman who requests it. Visit The National Breast Cancer Foundation and/or other not-for profit breast cancer group sites (e.g., Susan G. Komen) as your resource, you need to stay informed and be proactive.
