Friends Like Me™

Friends Like MeA Statewide Virtual Support Group and Grassroots Advocacy Network

The PBCC's Friends Like Me™ program helps breast cancer survivors across the Commonwealth - one woman at a time!  

NEW!  Breast Cancer: Covered or Not? A Guide on Insurance is a book developed by the PBCC.  If you've been diagnosed with breast cancer, all of your energy needs to be directed toward the critical process of treatment and recovery.  However, each step of the way brings various options that require informed decisions.  When you add the complex subject of health insurance to these demanding decisions, it is easy to see why millions of women struggle to deal with even the basics of insurance coverage.  This book was written precisely for this purpose - to clearly define health insurance options and guide you to a better understanding of what's covered and what's not - so you can concentrate on healing.  Order your copy today!

There are over one hundred support groups across the state providing valuable resources to women and their families facing a breast cancer diagnosis. Using our interactive map, you can find one near you!  

The Friends Like Me program reaches out to women in Pennsylvania who have been diagnosed with breast cancer within the last six months with a complimentary Friends Like Me™ Care Package, containing educational publications, books and information, as well as some "soft touches" like a pink ribbon pin and donated perfume.  This care package helps Pennsylvania women diagnosed within the past six months by providing educational and inspirational information at a time when they need it most.
