Urgent: Help get Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer Week legislation passed today!
Joanna Rudnick and In the Family ask for your support in helping FORCE and Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-FL) to get Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer Week legislation passed by the US Congress.
The legislation calls for designating the last week of September as “National Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer Week” and Wednesday of that week as “National Previvor Day.” HBOC Week and Previvor Day will raise awareness of hereditary cancer, leading to more education, research and resources. Knowledge of a genetic predisposition to cancer, available risk management and treatment options can save lives!
Please see the FORCE website for details on how you can take action in just 2 very easy steps!
