Understanding Breast Cancer

Making sense of the ever-changing world of breast cancer can be overwhelming.  Are you newly diagnosed with breast cancer or has a friend or loved one shared the news that they have breast cancer? Learn about your personal risk and ways to take an active role in your breast health.  Read about being a survivor, or offering support to a breast cancer survivor.  Find local resources to assist you.  Becoming informed & empowered is the first step in battling disease.

The Susan G. Komen for the Cure national website, www.komen.org, is a one-stop resource for the latest information on breast cancer risk factors, early detection and screening, diagnosis, treatment and support. In addition, you will find the latest on integrative and complementary therapies, life after treatment, quality of care and much more.
