Did you know that while breast cancer affects women of all backgrounds, women of color—especially Black and Hispanic women—often face higher mortality rates and unique barriers to care? Early detection and equitable access to treatment are crucial for saving lives. Let’s use our voices this month to raise awareness, advocate for resources, and support research that addresses disparities in breast cancer outcomes. Together, we can help ensure that every woman, regardless of race or background, has a fair chance at survival and hope.
