Many individuals are unaware of the risks and implications of carrying BRCA genes, which can lead to genetically-linked cancers affecting people of all genders. 

Our Core Mission:

🔬 Raise Awareness: Our primary goal is to enhance awareness within the BC Jewish community and among healthcare professionals regarding the impact of BRCA genes on health.

📚 Education: We are committed to providing comprehensive education, equipping community members with the understanding needed to make informed choices about their health, including genetic testing.

🌱 Reduce Stigma and Fear: We're actively working to diminish the stigma and fear surrounding genetic testing, ensuring accessibility for all who may benefit from it.

🔗 Access to Genetic Testing: We are advocating for improved access to genetic testing through BC for high risk groups.

🧬 Supporting Carriers: We're dedicated to supporting BRCA carriers and their families and helping them navigate the potential challenges associated with carrying a BRCA gene mutation.

♂️ Gender Equality: Gender equality is at the core of our mission. We strive to destigmatize BRCA for male carriers and promote equality within our community.
