The North Carolina Office on Disability and Health at UNC-Chapel Hill recently developed a pamphlet, "Breast Health Care: Easy to Read, Easy to Understand". This educational material was developed with generous funding from Susan G. Komen for the Cure.
"Breast Health" teaches women with intellectual disabilities about the importance of breast care and cancer screening. It provides low reading level text and illustrations on how to follow the recommended steps to breast health.
The pamphlet covers risk factors, cancer screening, breast self-exam, and living a healthy lifestyle.
