Free 2018 Breast Cancer Patient and Caregiver Event, Women's Health Event by American Society of Breast Surgeons Foundation

COLUMBIA, Md., January 10, 2018 (Newswire.com) - The American Society of Breast Surgeons (ASBrS) Foundation is launching two unique in-person experiences in 2018, complementing its award-winning online patient education and public awareness efforts.

Lighting Your Path – Survivorship After Breast Cancer: (May 6, 2018, in Orlando, FL; for patients and caregivers)

These two unique in-person experiences complement the mission of the American Society of Breast Surgeons Foundation. We're taking public education about breast issues and health to a new level. Collectively, these programs will drive increased awareness of prevention and post-diagnosis care, while creating lasting networking and support that can't be found in an online support group.

Beth Boyd, RN, President, American Society of Breast Surgeons Foundation

This is a free support event of significant interest to breast cancer and breast disease patients, their caregivers, high-risk patients, and people who want to better support loved ones and friends with breast cancer. It is being held at the JW Marriott Grande Lakes, in Orlando, FL, on May 6, 2018, at the same location as the American Society of Breast Surgeons’ Annual Meeting.

Companies that treat breast disease and breast cancer can have a unique multi-channel opportunity: reaching breast surgeons and patients and caregivers in one convenient location. Local Orlando/Florida-based companies looking for ways to support the people in their community should attend. Exhibit, sponsorship, and paid symposia opportunities are available.
