Breast Cancer Awareness Month


This year marks the 40th anniversary of recognizing October as Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

Since 1989, breast cancer death rates in the United States have dropped by 44%.

That’s not a coincidence — for four decades, Breast Cancer Awareness Month has helped raise awareness across the nation, encouraging millions to take action.

Early detection, education, and advances in treatment have saved more than half a million lives.

As we recognize this important milestone, let’s continue to spread awareness, support those impacted, and work together toward a future without breast cancer.
