Prairie Ridge Health and the UW Carbone Cancer Center are working together to ask the women of our community to share their views about mammograms. We are seeking your help to better understand why women in rural communities may not have mammograms. 

Why is this important?

One in 8 women will develop breast cancer in their lifetime.  Early detection is our best fight against breast cancer, yet women in rural communities lag behind when it comes to getting screened.  For example, in Columbia County, only 39% of eligible women receive their yearly recommended mammogram compared to the state average of 50%. 

Help us learn how to educate the community and promote Women's Health within the community.

THE SURVEY HAS NOW CLOSED.  THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT AND VALUABLE FEEDBACK. 

We look forward to sharing the results of our research.
