VCU Health Community Memorial Hospital in South Hill will be hosting FREE Breast Health Educational Work Shops throughout the region, starting late June through August. VCU Health CMH wants to empower women to take control of their health by educating them about their body and providing important breast cancer resources. Participants will learn about breast health education and breast cancer awareness, intervention and early detection, who is at risk for breast cancer and how often and when to have a mammogram. Blood pressure and cholesterol checks will also be offered. Participants will also receive a gift. Women of all ages are invited to join us at any of these locations and times:

These workshops are funded through a grant from Susan G. Komen Central Virginia and in collaboration with VCU Massey Cancer Center's Health Information & Advocacy @ Your Library. For more information, call VCU Health CMH Health & Wellness at (434) 774-2541.
