In order for breast cancer to be eradicated, we have to support research and education. One of the best ways I know to do that is to become a vocal advocate for breast cancer causes. April 28th-May 1st is the National Breast Cancer Coaltion's Annual Advocacy Conference. I strongly urge you to attend.

The conference will proviide networking opportunities with other breast cancer survivors and friends, provide excellent educational workshops on the latest in breast cancer, and provide the opportunity to lobby your senators and representatives on Capitol Hill to ensure they know they need to be serious about breast cancer, too.

Around 750 people gather each year at the conference - individuals and coaltions from around the U. S. and internationally. To register, go to www.stopbreastcancer.org, click on Grassroots Advocacy, and click on the Annual Advocacy Conference. You'll be glad you came!
