Get Care & Learn

The Our Bodies Program

Twice as many African-American women die from breast cancer than Caucasian women, although fewer actually get the disease. Early screenings can detect abnormalities sooner and potentially save lives.

The Our Bodies Program helps connect uninsured and underinsured women of color with essential breast health services, including:

• Free or low cost clinical breast examinations, referrals, and mammograms
• Support for women who experience breast health abnormalities, including breast cancer.

Bosom Buddy Support

Volunteers are available to join you on your mammogram appointments and offer support.

Transportation Assistance

Tokens are available for women who use public transportation to get to mammogram appointments.

Breast Health Workshops

The Our Bodies Program provides free workshops on breast health.

Educational Workshops & Health Fairs

Upon request, our Breast Health Coordinator conducts educational presentations, distributes learning materials at community sites, and addresses breast health questions and concerns.
