Sharing the heart to heart experiences of breast cancer
The Bosom Buddies Program at the Women’s Center of Jacksonville is dedicated to improving the lives of women affected by breast cancer. Compassionately and respectfully, we educate, support and advocate so that women are empowered to make informed decisions concerning their health.
The Bosom Buddies Program provides:
COMMUNITY EDUCATION PRESENTATIONS
Free breast health/breast cancer educational presentations are available to groups within the greater Jacksonville area. Presentations are targeted to specific audience requirements and breast health/ breast cancer educational materials are provided at each presentation.
INFORMATION RESOURCE CENTER
Bosom Buddies provides free educational materials for women diagnosed with breast cancer, those at high-risk, and those who are interested in learning more about breast cancer. Bosom Buddies also provides information and referrals to women looking for resources in the greater Jacksonville community.
SUPPORT GROUP
Bosom Buddies hosts a weekly breast cancer support group meeting on Monday evenings from 7 – 8:30 p.m. at the Women's Center of Jacksonville. The support group focuses on “caring and sharing” and “survivorship education”, providing the opportunity for breast cancer survivors to share their personal cancer journey experiences and learn ways to increase quality of life. The group consists of women in all stages of their cancer journey: newly diagnosed women, women in treatment, women who are now cancer-free, and occasionally caregivers. New members are always welcome! Call 904.722.3000 Ext.224.
