Women of Color Breast Cancer Survivors Support Project’s mission is to support breast cancer survivors, to offer crisis intervention in the healing process, to educate women and families on breast health, and to actively participate in effective change as it relates to health and racial disparities.
This grant from TCRF will go to support Women of Color’s Survivor to Thriver Wellness Warrior Project, a comprehensive approach to total mind & body wellness for at risk women and survivors of breast cancer. The project focuses on three core areas of women’s wellness: 1) Breast Health and Early Detection Knowledge 2) Nutrition Education and 3) Fitness Training. Each component has been designed to help individuals and families experience a better quality of life, minimize the risk factors for developing breast cancer or experiencing a recurrence, and enhance the survivorship care plan.
