Breast Cancer Programs in Native Communities


The 2024 Washington State Legislature directed WSIPP to examine peer states’ programming related to breast cancer for native communities. Specifically, WSIPP is directed to describe programs for education and prevention before diagnosis, and support and resources after diagnosis, and to summarize any available research on these programs. The programs must be operated by the state, tribes, or tribes in coordination with the state.

The report is due to the legislature by June 30, 2025.
