Utah has one of the lowest rates of mammography screening in the nation.
Patient navigators and community health workers are uniquely situated to build
bridges between the health care system and the communities they serve. As these
roles evolve nationwide, there is a continued need for training and skills
development.
With funding from the Susan G Komen Foundation, the Utah Cancer Control
Program is hosting a training for lay health workers to will provide them with
the tools, resource and skills to educate women about mammography screening and
wish to invite you and members from your community to attend.
The training is scheduled for September 6, 2012 from 7:30-4:30
Come join us as we work together toward building bridges and expanding care
in the communities we serve.
The cost is FREE and breakfast, lunch and snacks will be provided. A $20.00
gift certificate and a certificate of completion will be provided.
