Abstract
Five years post-Hurricane Katrina, an increasing number of women in New Orleans have been d iagnosed with late stage invasive breast cancer despite the availability of a free breast clinic and mammography screening. Presentation of late-stage breast cancer limits treatment options and poor outcomes are more likely. An evidence-based educational program was provided in a relaxed informal setting to low-income women to increase their awareness of the importance of early detection and screening for breast cancer through the use of screening mammograms. Educating this underserved population of women on the importance of early detection of breast cancer and mammography screening sought to improve patient awareness and potentially increase the use of screening practices.
