Test your knowledge: breast cancer

Oct 12, 2022, 15:00 PM

If you are seeing a lot of pink being worn this month, that’s because October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. From pro athletes and politicians to those affected by breast cancer, wearing pink is part of the annual campaign to raise awareness of a disease that will affect many women (and men) in their lifetime.

CareOregon provides support by helping members get access to the clinical care, education, screening, and support they need.
