Breast Cancer Awareness Week




October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month!
JELCC devotes a week of activities designed to promote breast cancer awareness.  
 Our week focuses around celebration and fun. During this week, JELCC programs work together to support a campaign for awareness and those currently affected by the disease.  

 

Awareness Fact: One in eight US women will be diagnosed with breast cancer, this is approximately 220,000 women per year.  Of that number, approximately 40,000 will die of the disease.


Awareness Fact: When breast cancer is detected early, in the localized stage, the 5-year relative survival rate is 100%.



Awareness Fact:  Of every 1,000 mammograms, only 2 to 4 lead to a diagnosis of cancer.



JELCC shares a special thank you to our JELCC students for organizing Sunshine Baskets. These baskets will be delivered to patients suffering from Breast Cancer.
