workshops for volunteer interns

WHIPP

Our Women’s Health in the Point Project is designed to reduce the prevalence of breast & cervical cancer among women residing in the Bayview Hunters Point district of San Francisco.

WHIPP trains interns through monthly BSE Workshops geared toward early detection of cancer.

BSE Workshop

These 5-hour workshops encourage women to appreciate and engage in:

  • Learning the American Cancer Society (ACS) breast cancer detection guidelines
  • Early detection practices
  • Practicing breast self-examination (BSE) confidently and  competently

Workshops are taught over two sessions, usually on Saturdays.
