Pink and Black Boston

Pink and Black Boston A network of black breast cancer survivors improving the quality of life in survivorship for others.

The Pink and Black Education and Support Network was launched in October 2017. The Network leverages the successful work of the Pink and Black Ambassadors, a group of Black female breast cancer survivors who came together to collaborate with the Boston Public Health Commission in 2005 to increase awareness of breast cancer among Black women. The purpose of today’s Network is to make female breast cancer survivors aware of local resources that are available to improve quality of life in survivorship, and to identify activities on the local breast cancer landscape in which the Network can be involved in service to others. Pink and Black is a program of the Boston Public Health Commission's Chronic Disease Prevention and Control Division.
