Mission
Breast Cancer Network of Strength, formerly known as Y-ME National Breast Cancer Organization, is a Chicago-based national organization with the mission to ensure, through information, empowerment and peer support, that no one faces breast cancer alone. The organization does not raise money for research. Instead, it provides immediate emotional relief for anyone touched by breast cancer. Breast Cancer Network of Strength's peer support model is well differentiated in the breast cancer patient advocacy environment. The organization's premier peer support service dates back 30 years to when it was founded: a hotline staffed entirely by breast cancer survivors.
