Having a job doesn’t always mean healthcare is affordable.

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and we’re proud to partner with BD (Becton, Dickinson and Company) and Direct Relief to launch the Breast Health Access Initiative!

Through this initiative, NAFC members can request support to establish or expand services focused on breast cancer prevention, screening, and diagnosis.

Funding will support a range of needs, including:
• Medical & reproductive health supplies
• Mammograms & diagnostic services
• Mammography equipment

Thank you to BD and Direct Relief for making this possible and for recognizing the importance of expanding access to breast health services in medically underserved communities. 💗
