No One Should Face Breast Cancer Alone | Carrie Williams, ABCD: After Breast Cancer Diagnosis

What if, the day after your breast cancer diagnosis, you could be matched one-to-one with someone who's already walked your exact path, same diagnosis, similar age, similar life? That's what ABCD: After Breast Cancer Diagnosis has been doing for 25 years. Carrie Williams, Director of Service Delivery and Mentor Engagement, joins us to talk about the power of personalized peer support, and why a trained Mentor can offer something no helpline, website, or pamphlet ever could. In this conversation: How ABCD matches patients with Mentors based on diagnosis, treatment, age, and life situation. Why emotional support is a clinical issue, not a soft one. The new program supporting "previvors" people with a genetic predisposition. How 300+ volunteer Mentors deliver free support across the country What every newly diagnosed patient should know on day one.
