Public Awareness

We work to raise awareness about the symptoms and risk factors of these cancers with area women.   When we speak to groups or exhibit, we have quilt banners that covey our key messages.  See Quilt banners.  

We partner with outstanding clinical professionals to educate area health care providers about symptoms.
