Breast Cancer Awareness Month

Breast Cancer Awareness Month raises awareness about the impact of breast cancer. Observed in October, it serves as a crucial time to inform and educate the public about early detection, the importance of regular screenings, treatment, and the resources available for those affected by this disease. Breast cancer remains the most common cancer among Australian women (excluding non-melanoma skin cancer).

We have gathered some resources for you to explore below.

Resources for Breast Cancer Support

Several non-profit organizations provide valuable resources for breast cancer screening and support. These include:

• National Breast Cancer Foundation: Offers valuable information on detection and awareness, prevention and risk, diagnosis, living with breast cancer and patient and caregiver support.
• Breast Cancer Network Australia: While a diagnosis of breast cancer looks different for everyone, BCNA can work together to ensure all Australians diagnosed have access to the resources and support they need.
• Australian Breast Cancer Research: supports breast cancer research across the disease lifespan; from prevention to treatment to cure.

These organizations have tons of helpful articles and offer resources and support.
