Breast Cancer Association of Queensland exists to improve the quality of life for women with breast cancer and their families in Queensland. Every year in Australia approximately 13 000 women are diagnosed with breast cancer.
The Breast Cancer Association of Queensland's main focus has been to provide breast care services to women and their families in rural Queensland. Initiatives include the training and placing of support breast care nurses in Rockhampton, Longreach/Barcaldine, Mitchell, Emerald, Fraser Coast and now the Central West District. Annual seminars in regional areas help to raise awareness in the community of the importance of regular examinations. We also produce a Resource Directory and post-operative exercise DVD's free of charge to breast cancer sufferers. BCAQ have also invested substantially into various research programs in Brisbane.
