Mission Statement
"To advocate for and improve quality care from screening through survivorship for people affected by breast cancer in Colorado."The Colorado Breast Cancer Resources Directory was first published in 1995 by volunteers from the Colorado Breast Cancer Coalition. From those initial efforts and later from those of Day of Caring volunteers and staff, the Directory has become known as the guide to resources for breast cancer patients, caregivers and health care providers in Colorado. The Colorado Cancer Coalition and Colorado Breast Cancer Task Force are proud to continue the tradition since 2006 of providing this valuable resource in printed and online versions to patients and caregivers at no charge.
The Colorado Breast Cancer Resources Directory online was created by the Colorado Cancer Coalition's Breast Cancer Task Force with the assistance of many volunteers. We thank everyone who contributed, especially the following volunteers who helped research and update the hundreds of listings included:
| Diane Akins | Carol Dittmar | Pat Patterson |
| Lauren Ambrozic | Linda Fiske | Bonnie Pichler |
| Jill Asrael | Ginna Harbison | Stephanie Shulman |
| Lisen Axell | Lupe Harbison | Teri Spector |
| Jan Bartsch | Brenda Lantz | Tara Sweitzer |
| Judy Biegler | Dorothy Mattive | Vicki Tosher |
| B.J. Boucher | Judy Morehouse | Kim Wright |
| Lynn Cogley | Antoinette Paniagua |
The print directory is available free of charge in English and Spanish and is published annually. Online listings are updated and added throughout the year. Pictured on the top banner of each page are breast cancers survivors who were models for Susan G. Komen for the Cure, Denver Affiliate.
