flag A national study recruits Black women to address racial disparities in breast cancer outcomes.

flag A nationwide study by the American Cancer Society, VOICES of Black Women, is recruiting Black women aged 25 to 55 without prior cancer diagnoses to share their health experiences. flag The effort aims to address persistent disparities, as Black women are 40% more likely to die from breast cancer and face higher mortality before age 50. flag Led by survivor and advocate Erica Austin, the study highlights systemic barriers like racial discrimination, mistrust in healthcare, and provider bias that delay diagnoses. flag Data collected will inform equitable prevention and care strategies, emphasizing that health inequities disproportionately affect marginalized communities.
