On September 21, 2023, we hosted the webinar “People, Places, and Breast Cancer: The Pathways Study and how our communities impact survival and quality of life.” While many webinar attendees asked about how and where to get support, our speakers and panelists emphasized that systems, like our medical systems and community structures, play a large role in what is available and the quality of support during and after treatment. A major point of this forum was that resources vary by place. Where there is more money, more services are usually available. People who live in neighborhoods with others from a similar culture often feel more supported with a greater sense of community.

At Zero Breast Cancer, we develop multilingual educational resources that effectively translate scientific research into practical information for promoting health and wellness. Our commitment lies in creating materials that are not only easy to understand but also address the priorities and concerns of the communities we serve. This dedication is reflected in the development of our Generations campaign, which educates young adults and the broader community about the harmful, multigenerational effects of endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) on our health.

BEACON (Beneficial, Empowering, Accessible, Cancer Online Network) is a free, self-paced online system that provides cancer patients, caregivers, and survivors tools to reduce stress, cultivate joy, and practice wellness. This program was developed by Wellness Within, a nonprofit dedicated to helping people navigate the fog of information and emotions surrounding cancer diagnosis; their goal is to give space to focus on your quality of life while letting the doctors focus on the disease.
