Care for HER

Navigating a better future for Black Breast Cancer patients

Making a Difference in the lives of Black Breast Cancer Patients

We are experiencing a health crisis. According to the American Cancer Society, Black women are 41% more likely to die of breast cancer than white women and have the lowest 5-year survival rate of any race or ethnicity.

This October, TOUCH: The Black Breast Cancer Alliance and Unite for HER are honored to announce a new campaign to spread awareness of this crisis while providing real support directly to Black breast cancer patients.

Join us throughout the month on social media and at various live events to learn about integrative care and nurse navigation, and hear directly from patients in Raleigh, Philadelphia, and Washington, D.C.
