African American women are more likely than white women to be diagnosed with breast cancer under the age of 45. This is compounded by increased mortality rates for African American women nationally and in San Diego County. Furthermore, African American women are more likely to develop triple negative breast cancers than their Caucasian counterparts.

We hope you join us to talk about breast cancer in our community.
