American Women in Touch
At
African American Women in Touch, our purpose is to teach proper
breast self-examination, educate women on the value of finding cancer
early, and to provide free mammograms to uninsured minority women
or minority women whose insurance does not cover the cost of the
mammogram. Stopping breast cancer before it has a chance to
affect your life means putting the focus on your health, not on
cancer.

THE
IMPORTANCE OF EARLY DETECTION
Detecting breast cancer in its earliest stages increases your
treatment options as well as your chance for survival. Mammography,
breast self-examination, and clinical breast examinations offer
the best methods for detecting breast changes early.
