Breast Cancer Screening

It's Your Life

Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women. And living with a disability does not make you immune. Know the facts about breast cancer and why you need to make screening a regular part of your health care.

If you are between 40-49 years of age, talk with your doctor about getting a mammogram. If you are 50 years of age or older, be sure to get a mammogram every two years.
