Racial and Health Disparities in Breast Cancer

Today at 2 pm ET: Webinar on Racial and Health Disparities in Breast Cancer

Description: Dr. Lisa Newman, Professor of Surgery and Director of the Breast Care Center at the University of Michigan, will present on disparities in breast cancer and suggest ways preconception peer educators can address them. 
Since 1985, October has been observed as National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. For 30 years, there have been efforts during the month to address education on risk factors and protective measures. But there are still major disparities in cancer prevention and cancer risk. Learn about why these disparities exist and what you can do to help reduce cancer risk in your communities.
