The Mission of BCPP

1 in 8 women today will be diagnosed with breast cancer.

Yet, 90% of cases are not linked to family history, but to lifestyle, environmental, and toxic chemical exposures.

That’s why BCPP works to end the preventable risk factors linked to breast cancer—to save lives and stop the disease before it starts.
