We spoke with Joe Cappello, Co-Founder and Executive Director, and President Donna Johnson about Are You Dense?, an organization dedicated to educating women about breast density and how it affects cancer detection. We also spoke about the upcoming For The Girls brunch on October 19th.
Connecticut is taking the lead in championing breast density awareness, recognizing the importance of transparency and informed decision-making for women's well-being. The National Dense Breast Disclosure Law requires healthcare providers to inform patients about their breast density during mammography screenings. By providing this vital information, women can better understand their individual risk factors and seek appropriate medical care. Together, we will celebrate this historic moment and the power of knowledge in women's healthcare decisions.
