About 1 in every 100 breast cancers diagnosed in the US is found in a man. Although this is rare, it’s important for men to be aware of symptoms and risk factors for breast cancer for not only their loved ones, but also for themselves.

What a day in Chattanooga! 💙

Thank you to the Tennessee Rural Health Care Center of Excellence for partnering with us on last week's Southeast Regional Healthcare Collaborative Meeting.

Charitable clinics, statewide associations, community nonprofits, and academic partners came together around one goal: making sure our uninsured and underserved neighbors can get the care they need. In World Café conversations, we talked about dental and behavioral health, social drivers of health, hospital partnerships, and specialty care access. We shared what's working, named the challenges, and came up with real ideas for solving them together.

We left with new connections, fresh ideas, and a lot of energy for what comes next. Thank you to everyone who joined us, and we can't wait to keep building these partnerships!
