During the education presentations, we have in the past, currently and will continue to help increase participation in breast and cervical cancer screenings; build and maintain partnerships with community health clinics to whom we have and will continue to refer the women to who need the screenings; and to facilitate breast and cervical cancer screening scheduling among the women who participate in the community workshops.
