Learn your risk for developing breast cancer during event at Norton Cancer Institute Pat Harrison Resource Center
With one in eight women facing a breast cancer diagnosis in her lifetime, early detection and education are critical — and that’s exactly what an upcoming event in Jeffersonville, Indiana, aims to provide.
Thanks to increased awareness, early detection, and new treatments, 99% of early-stage breast cancer patients survive at least five years. The key is early detection, which leads to faster treatment and better outcomes. Breast cancer often has no symptoms, so regular breast health checkups are crucial.
Norton Cancer Institute invites the community to wear pink and come together for a special Pink Out event on Wednesday, Oct. 29, 2025, from 5 to 7 p.m. at Pat Harrison Resource Center, 1206 Spring St., Jeffersonville, IN 47130.
This free community event is dedicated to raising awareness about breast cancer and empowering individuals with the knowledge they need to take charge of their breast health.
Attendees will have the opportunity to:
• Learn about risk factors and screening guidelines
• Receive a personalized breast cancer risk assessment
• Take home valuable educational resources
• Enjoy light refreshments and connect with others in the community
Two informative breast health presentations will be held at 5:30 p.m. and 6:30 p.m., led by health care professionals committed to education and early detection. The event is open to the public.
Registration is encouraged, but walk-ins are welcome. Call (812) 288-1156 to register.
