Breast Cancer Awareness Toolkit: Resources for Public Health Communicators

October is recognized as Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and the American Cancer Society’s Breast Cancer Awareness Employer Toolkit offers public health communicators a comprehensive set of ready-to-use resources to support awareness and prevention efforts. The toolkit includes email and newsletter messages covering breast cancer facts and the importance of screening, social media messages, guidance on sharing personal stories, videos and animations, and educational materials.

Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women in the U.S., with about 1 in 8 women diagnosed in their lifetime. Mortality has declined thanks to screening, awareness, and improved treatments. Communicators can use these assets to share credible information and support cancer prevention efforts. Find the ACS toolkit here.
