About me:

Breast Cancer Network of Strength™, formerly known as Y-ME National Breast Cancer Organization®, is a Chicago-based national nonprofit organization with the mission to ensure, through information, empowerment and peer support, that no one faces breast cancer alone. The organization does not raise money for research. Instead, it provides immediate emotional relief for anyone touched by breast cancer.

YourShoes™ is the umbrella name for the organization’s peer support services and encompasses the 24/7 breast cancer support center with real-time interpreters available in more than 150 languages for telephone conversations; match programs; support via e-mail; the ShareRing Network, a monthly one-hour teleconference; and survivor-facilitated support groups.

For more information about Breast Cancer Network of Strength, visit www.networkofstrength.org. Peer counselors can be contacted at 1-800-221-2141, with interpreters available in more than 150 languages.

Who I'd like to meet:

Anyone interested in being a part of our Network, whether you request information, participate in a Network of Strength program or event, donate money or accept a volunteer assignment.
