According to breastcancer.org, Breast Cancer Awareness Month, held in October every year, aims to promote screening and prevention of the disease, which affects 2.3 million women worldwide. The UWI Office of Administration supports the fight against the disease.
We encourage you to learn more about breast cancer, the risk factors for yourself and those you love — and how to minimize them — and the importance of being screened for the disease.
