While young women have a higher incidence of aggressive cancers, young Black women have double the mortality rate of young White women. Advances in early detection and treatment have dramatically reduced breast cancer’s ability to take lives overall, but it’s clear that these breakthroughs haven’t benefitted all groups equally—and this disparity has remained unchanged for more than a decade. 🌍 🤝🎗️

Did you know? Prostate cancer takes a greater toll on Black men than on men of other races. In the United States, one in six Black men will get prostate cancer in their lifetime, compared to one in eight men overall. Black men are also more than twice as likely to die from the disease. 🌍 🤝🎗️

🇺🇸 Happy 4th of July! 🎉🗽

As we come together to celebrate the spirit of independence and unity, I want to reflect on the incredible work being done by our nonprofit organization. At The Cancer Equity Project, our mission is to reduce disparities in healthcare for underserved groups, ensuring that everyone has access to quality care and the opportunity to lead a healthy life.

This 4th of July, let's honor the values that our nation was built upon – freedom, equality, and the pursuit of happiness – by recognizing the importance of healthcare equity. While we commemorate the birth of our great nation, it is crucial to remember that the pursuit of justice extends beyond political and civil liberties; it encompasses the right to good health and well-being for all.

At The Cancer Equity Project, we strive every day to bridge the gaps in healthcare that disproportionately affect underserved communities. We believe that access to quality healthcare is a fundamental human right, and we work tirelessly to ensure that it becomes a reality for everyone, regardless of their background, socioeconomic status, or geographical location.

This 4th of July, let us reaffirm our commitment to creating a healthier, more equitable society. Together, we can break down barriers, raise awareness, and advocate for change.

Whether it's through our innovative programs, community outreach initiatives, or partnerships with healthcare providers, we are making a difference in the lives of those who need it most.

Wishing you all a joyful and meaningful 4th of July! Let us celebrate our shared values and continue to make a positive impact in the world.

Be human and keep an open mind. Understand the risks that explicit and implicit biases pose to patients. Patients are often aware of a practitioner’s bias even when the practitioner is not. Bias interferes with therapeutic relationships in several ways, including trust and transparency. Register for a free workshop and learn more about the Cancer Quity Project!

Our goal is to overcome the disparities that exist in both cancer care and in life, we not only have to see people for their unique, individual experience but we must seek them out.

We must seek opportunities for inclusion. We must seek education on differences in treatment. We must seek to understand barriers that inhibit access.

Did you know? Among people under the age of 20, Hispanics have the highest rate of leukemias of all ethnicities—in children, by more than 20%, cancer organizations note. Latinos also face survival disparities: A separate study found 10-year survival for adult Hispanic patients with ALL was 28%, compared with 39% for non-Hispanics.
