Executive Director's Message
A woman's most important role as a mother always has been to prepare her children and family to live happy, health lives. This includes educating them about breast cancer- a disease that afflicts and increasing growing number of African American and Latina women who are diagnosed and dying at alarming rates.
In an attempt to address this issue, Sistas of AZ and The Worthy Institute presents Campaign PINK 365 – a breast health awareness campaign for women of color that provides information and tools to foster increased awareness, support, empowerment, advocacy and action. It also provides breast health outreach education; free mammograms for the uninsured and under insured in a mobile mammography coach, as well as cultural competency training. This campaign is funded and supported by Susan G. Komen for the Cure Phoenix Affiliate.
