Executive Director -- Breast Cancer Action
- Description
- Breast Cancer Action’s mission is to carry the voices of people affected by breast cancer to inspire and compel the changes necessary to end the breast cancer epidemic. Founded in 1990 in San Francisco by a small group of women with breast cancer who were frustrated by the lack of information about the disease, BCA now has established its reputation as the watchdog of the breast cancer movement. Through education, activism and policy work, BCA fearlessly and compassionately communicates the best current knowledge about breast cancer to thousands of women each year who are affected by this epidemic. Simultaneously, BCA has and will continue to influence both corporate and governmental actions to improve treatments and access to them, to address the involuntary environmental exposures that increase the risk of breast cancer, to counter the marketing of cancer for corporate profit, and to reframe the conversation about cancer "disparities" to focus on social, economic, and racial inequities.
