Abstract
The purpose of the Community Profile report is to gain and present current information on the breast health of communities in the Greater Fort Worth service area. This information is collected to identify and assess local priorities for breast cancer education, screening, treatment and treatment support services (health and social support services) currently provided and needed for the under and uninsured population at greatest risk of breast cancer. The information gathered from the periodic Community Profile effort is used to establish Grant funding priorities and to direct Affiliate Strategic planning with the desired result of effective use and distribution of Affiliate funding and resources for breast health needs.
