Being with other survivors filled a void in my life that I didn’t know I had. It was comforting to be with others who have experienced the same thing. I always appreciated my family for their support but they cannot truly understand what it’s like to have cancer.
For the Breast of Us may have started as a place for women of color affected by breast cancer to connect and share stories about their experiences, but one year after launching it’s become so much more than that.
Being a breast cancer advocate starts at home by advocating for yourself and can expand as you become comfortable sharing your story and even connecting your community to resources that have helped you along the way. You don’t need access to anything or anyone special.
Your voice, your story, and your support can make a difference. Join For the Breast of Us in our mission to empower, support, and advocate for women of color across the globe. Together, we can create a future where every woman has the resources and support she needs to overcome breast cancer.
