Praise is the Cure™ Week
Sept. 25 - Oct. 1, 2011


Praise Is The Cure™ is an initiative is designed to promote breast cancer outreach and prevention and to celebrate survivors. Our mission is to motivate, educate and encourage African American women to get breast cancer screenings and treatment.

During this compelling weekend, many women are freed to simply focus on that lump or ill feeling they have been dealing with in silence. They are provided with all the information needed to begin the path to healing and maintaining healthy relationships with their spiritual and physical families.
