Breast Health Education Workshop with Maurer Foundation

Monday, October 21, Noon – 1pm, Room 9207

 

85 percent of women who are diagnosed with breast cancer do not have a family history of cancer. Awareness starts with education. For Breast Cancer Awareness Month, join for a workshop on breast health education with the Maurer Foundation.

 

Learn about risk factors for breast cancer, including factors we cannot control along with ways we can reduce risk through lifestyle.

 

Participants will be empowered to advocate for their own health in learning about methods of early detection including a breast self-exam.
