2023 Breast Cancer Facts and Figures
Every year, NBCC updates our advocates on the latest breast cancer statistics. In our newly available 2023 Breast Cancer Facts & Figures, the statistics are clear: As the second leading cause of cancer deaths for women in the United States, breast cancer remains a deadly disease. Our fight to end breast cancer must continue through our bold action and advocacy. We encourage advocates to use these Facts & Figures to stay educated, updated, and motivated.
