  • The SW Michigan Affiliate grants process funds programs that offer education to many of the medically underserved populations in SW Michigan.
  • The SW Michigan Affiliate Education Committee participates in health fairs and is available to speak to groups about breast healthcare.
  • The SW Michigan Affiliate offers an extensive collection of education materials on a wide range of issues. Please check materials available (click here).
