Step 2 - Promoting the Program

BreastCheck:
  • sends posters and pamphlets
  • places ads in local papers
  • provides, if requested, a speaker or presentation kits
  • sends invitations to most women 50 years of age and over

The community can have a huge impact on participation by helping with promotion.

  • Group appointments can be arranged.
  • In rural areas women under 50 will be accepted with a physician referral and dependent on space.
  • The BreastCheck is only for women without signs and symptoms of breast cancer.
