Education

Zero Breast Cancer works to facilitate an active exchange of information with community members. Through workshops, forums and community education programs, Zero Breast Cancer translates complex research projects to make science more understandable and to promote community action.

 

Education Programs Include:

  • Workshops on conducting community-based research and understanding breast cancer research techniques.

  • Community forums and town hall meetings with national breast cancer researchers.

  • Outreach to adolescent girls to give them information to make healthy choices about their lives.

 

Breast Cancer and Environment - Peer Education Tool Kit

The Breast Cancer and Environment Peer Education Tool Kit is a program designed to increase awareness of breast cancer risk factors and modifiable environmental factors relevant to teens. Zero Breast Cancer created this peer education single lesson module targeted to teens, based on current breast cancer research and a formative community assessment of Marin County teachers, parents and adolescent girls.
