Health education for women is key to cancer prevention. Every person has a BRCA gene, but sometimes mutations occur that prevent genes from doing the job properly. The gynecologic oncologist, Dr. Christine Walsh of CU Anschutz, will be presenting the science behind the gene and why it is critical that everyone knows their status. We will discuss the barriers to testing and hear personal stories on how the test can save a life. Our speakers will address issues concerning life insurance, mental health support, and what happens next. Everyone who qualifies is eligible for a free screening test.
Women of the J present the program in partnership with Boulder Hadassah and Jewish Cancer Prevention.
6-7 pm: Socializing and light nosh, with opportunities to speak with representatives from the Ovarian Cancer Society, Bright Pink, Women's Health BCH, Boulder Valley Women’s Health Center, and many more.
7-8:15 pm: Presentation with time for Q&A
