Sistah's Surviving Breast Cancer, Inc. (SSBC) was formed by Jacqueline Y. “JB” Brown as a faith based support group. JB’s main goal for forming SSBC was to reduce the disparities in breast cancer deaths, treatment and recovery and to dispel the myths in African American and other minority communities by:
%newline%• Increasing breast health
%newline%• Increasing early detection awareness
%newline%• Increasing education of methods available
%newline%In 2008 our beloved JB’s life was cut short due to breast cancer.

%newline%Today, SSBC’s goals remain the same. Our support organization includes over thirty-five survivor members and over ten non-survivor supporters (Sistahs Supporting Sistah's Surviving Breast Cancer).
