Education & Resources

At the BCRC we’re dedicated to educating the community and our clients about breast cancer and preventive health to increase survivorship, as well as how to care for themselves through every stage of their treatment and on toward survivorship. To do so, we sponsor and produce four free community educational lectures annually and conduct field outreach to provide breast health information to the most vulnerable and/or isolated women in our community.

For clients, education is key to making informed decisions. We are committed to providing the resources necessary to help you do so.

Next Lecture:

Title: Understanding Genetic Testing for Breast & Ovarian Cancer"

 Dr. Fred Kass, Oncologist, Dr. Ralph Quijano, OB/GYN,  will discuss the role of cancer genetics counseling, screening, and the use of the BRAC Analysis test to detect the lifetime risk for hereditary breast and ovarian cancer.  Together with a BRCA Positive breast cancer survivor, they will share information about screening and medical management for patients at high risk for breast or ovarian cancer.
