The Center for Women and Gender Education announces a monthly series open to all members of the UCI community on various topics related to breast cancer, and also a biweekly support group for UCI women who are breast cancer survivors or current patients.
Participants are welcome to bring lunch.
The first session, on January 26, is a panel presentation by UCI staff women who are breast cancer survivors or are currently undergoing treatment. Our colleagues hope that sharing their experiences will encourage other UCI women and their families to confront the possibility of this disease and options for treatment, rather than avoid thinking about it out of fear. The session is open to women and men, staff, faculty, and students. The biweekly support group is for women who have undergone or are currently in treatment for breast cancer. It meets the second and fourth Friday of every month at noon- 1 pm at the Center for Women and Gender Education.
