FORCE improves the lives of the millions of individuals and families facing hereditary breast, ovarian, pancreatic, prostate, colorectal and endometrial cancers. Hereditary cancer is caused by an inherited mutation that increases the risk of cancer and can be passed through families from one generation to the next. Our community includes people with Lynch syndrome, a BRCA1, BRCA2, ATM, PALB2, CHEK
2, PTEN or other inherited gene mutation linked to cancer. At FORCE we accomplish our goals through education, support, advocacy and research efforts. We are dedicated to providing up-to-date, expert-reviewed information and resources that help people make informed medical decisions. Our strong, supportive community of peers and professionals ensures no one must face hereditary cancer alone. FORCE serves as a champion, unifying the community and advocating for awareness, access to care, and better treatment and prevention options.
