Breast Health 101
Outreach Training Program
FREE to Florida based Corporations, Organizations, and Community Groups
Knowing that 1 in 8 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer in their lifetime, the Florida Breast Cancer Foundation is seeking the help of all Florida residents to reach out and educate the women and men in their local communities.

The Florida Breast Cancer Foundation (FBCF) is a 501 (c) (3) grassroots organization with the mission to end breast cancer through advocacy, education, and research. Our Outreach Program includes a one hour, hands-on breast health education and awareness presentation tailored to the specific needs of your group, with a minimum of 20 participants.

Topics range from prevention and screening, to diagnosis, to treatment. The program includes a general description of:

- Anatomy and Physiology of the Breast
- Risk Factors
- Symptoms and Diagnosis
- Treatment Options

If you are interested in taking advantage of this exceptional opportunity to participate in the Florida Breast Cancer Foundation’ Breast Health 101 Outreach Program Training, please contact Jessica Parker-Kerr at 305.631.2134 or by email at Jessica@FloridaBreastCancer.org for more information or to schedule an appointment.
