Susan G. Komen for the Cure State of Breast Cancer Report
The State of Breast Cancer

This first-ever State of Breast Cancer report is guided by the simple truth that has inspired Susan G. Komen for the Cure for the past 25 years: Every one of us has the opportunity — in fact, the responsibility — to help save lives today and, ultimately, end this disease forever.

This report is both inspiring and shocking. You'll be inspired by the great strides in diagnosis, treatment and research that have turned millions of breast cancer patients into breast cancer survivors. At the same time, you'll be shocked that so many people — especially racial and ethnic minorities and those with little or no health insurance — continue to die needlessly from this disease simply because they cannot afford or access quality care.

In this sense, you're not holding just another report — you're holding a road map, a detailed plan for action. Read it. Mark it up. Carry it with you. Show it to family and friends. Let it be your guide. Whether you're a patient or medical professional, a survivor or a scientist, an advocate or elected official, you'll find at the end of each chapter a section called "What Can I Do?" listing the specific actions you can take to save lives and bring us closer to the cures.
