Breast Cancer Awareness

RWJBarnabas Health, New Jersey’s leader cancer care provider, is partnered with the Rutgers Cancer Institute of New Jersey, the state’s only NCI-designated Comprehensive Cancer Center – universally recognized for its scientific breakthroughs.

We stand behind our patients with an army of the nation’s top specialists, outstanding genetic counseling programs, state-of-the-art diagnostic tools, pioneering research and clinical trials and the most advanced genomic analysis available.

Together, we’re fighting breast cancer with endless resolve – alongside you, in your backyard and with world-class care close to home for you and those you love.

Breast Cancer Awareness Doesn’t End on October 31

Breast cancer doesn’t know April from June, or December from January, which is why it can strike at any time. At RWJBarnabas Health, we recognize that October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, but we also recognize that breast cancer is something to be aware of year round.

About 1 in 8 U.S. women will develop breast cancer over the course of her lifetime.

Are you at risk for breast cancer?
