A Breast Cancer Journey is a new step-by-step guidebook from the American Cancer Society that allows women to be active partners in their breast cancer journey and prepares them for the challenges that lie ahead.

The book will be available in bookstores nationwide the last week of September 2000, just before the start of National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Individual copies can also be ordered on the ACS web site, www.cancer.org, or by calling 1-800-ACS-2345.
