After Breast Cancer Diagnosis (ABCD)

Founded and grounded in Milwaukee in 1999, ABCD is an international breast cancer organization that provides free, customized, one-to-one emotional support to empower anyone impacted by a breast cancer diagnosis —patients, family, and friends. Working as a complement to medical care, all of our support services are delivered virtually over the phone or online, making them available anywhere it the world.

Their signature service is creating a unique match between a breast cancer patient and a professionally trained volunteer Mentor/breast cancer survivor or thriver who not only share a similar diagnosis and treatment plan, but also have common interests, similar ages, personal traits, and family dynamics. They support all stages and diagnoses, including metastatic/Stage IV. They currently have 200 active and diverse Mentors located throughout the United States, enabling them to make truly personalized connections.
