Abstract A72: [Advocate Abstract:] Community initiatives for all women's health Free

My poster will describe four community programs I have established at The Resurrection Project. The first focuses on breast cancer education workshops to address the lack of knowledge, cultural misconceptions, fear, and shame in my community and other underserved communities. The second focuses on breast cancer navigation to address the lack of insurance and cost issues in my community and in other underserved communities. The third focuses on breast cancer survivorship and empowerment to address the need for peer role models in my community and for other underserved communities. The fourth focuses on policy advocacy to address the need for resources for other underserved women.
