Today, there is more hope than ever for people facing breast cancer. However, there is much work to be done. Every day, the American Cancer Society (ACS) is helping people stay well by taking steps to reduce their risk of breast cancer. ACS is also helping people to diagnose cancer early, when it is most treatable; providing information that can deliver day-to-day help and emotional support to guide them through every step of their recovery. ACS hopes to find cures and new treatments by fundraising and conducting independent research. The organization also works with lawmakers to help all women get access to screenings and care.
