The University of Alabama at Birmingham’s School of Nursing will host its second annual Young Breast Cancer Survivors Network Workshop from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday, April 5. The event will be held at the School of Nursing, 1701 University Blvd.
The workshop is designed to help improve the quality of life for young breast cancer survivors and their loved ones through education, personal support and networking.
Sessions for women will include an “ask the experts” panel, a healthy cooking demonstration and a survivors panel.
Men who attend will learn how to support their loved one, and children ages 3-10 will learn about nutrition and engage in art activities, among other events.
Registration must be completed by April 2, and space is limited. Visit www.youngsurvivorsbhm.org to register, or call 205-975-8656 or email YBCSN@uab.edu for more information. Read more about how young breast cancer survivors in the network find support and strength.
