We’re excited to share that The Connie Dwyer Breast Cancer Foundation (CDBCF) has launched a strategic partnership with University Hospital in Newark, NJ, to bring life-saving cancer screenings to those who need them the most. Over the next two years, CDBCF and University Hospital will work together to raise $1.2M in funds to purchase a brand new, state-of-the-art mobile cancer screening unit equipped with high-tech breast imaging equipment and a private examination room. The new mobile unit (replacing one that is 15 years old and in disrepair) will reach underserved residents across Essex County – with a focus on uninsured women. In addition, the unit will deploy an expert team of clinicians and navigators to support their medical and non-medical needs.
