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.
