Free Patient Booklet on Ductal Carcinoma In Situ (DCIS)

The Cancer Prevention and Treatment Fund has developed a free, easy-to-read 32-page color booklet for women diagnosed with ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS).  It explains DCIS and commonly used medical terms in plain language and helps women make informed decisions about their treatment. The booklet was focus-group tested with  women in Washington, D.C.  from all education levels who had been treated for DCIS, and was approved and funded by a grant from the D.C. Cancer Consortium through the Department of Health, Government of the District of Columbia, and a grant from the Jacob and  Hilda Blaustein Foundation.  To request copies of the free patient booklet, write info@stopcancerfund.org or call 202-223-4000.
