Sisters United in Health/Hermanas Unidas en la Salud is a project of the Adelphi Breast Cancer Program and Planned Parenthood of Nassau County. It involves a collaboration of over a dozen organizations in the Long Island region. Our goal is to provide breast health education, conduct outreach initiatives and offer screening and support resources to African-American and Hispanic/Latino women in under-served communities. We do this by providing NO-COST:

- Bilingual educational presentations and in-service workshops to community organizations, agencies, schools and places of worship

- Referrals to free or low-cost mammograms for women regardless of their insurance or immigration status

- Participation in health and wellness fairs and community programs

- Bilingual educational brochures and literature to community organizations and businesses

Sisters United in Health is supported by grants from The Greater NYC Affiliate of Susan G. Komen, the Nassau County Women's Bar Foundation and other foundations.

In honor of Black History Month, we are encouraging women to prioritize their breast health by scheduling a mammogram. While breast cancer affects women of all races and ethnicities, African American women face higher mortality rates despite a slightly lower incidence of the disease.

The Adelphi NY Statewide Breast Cancer Hotline & Support Program is committed to eliminating health disparities by ensuring access to vital information, mammography screenings, and supportive services, helping to promote early detection and better outcomes for all women.

If you need a mammogram and are unsure how to access one, or if you do not have health insurance, please contact us at 800.877.8077. We’re here to help.
