This year, 22 events were held ranging from monthly traditional support group meetings with a cultural sensibility to community events such as theatre productions, physical movement experiences, and mental and emotional wellness gatherings. Sharing meals is a crucial part of building our survivor community. We offer 1-1 support from licensed therapists and cancer coaches. We have returned to house and/or hospital calls. A total of 13,612 individuals (in-person and virtually) were touched by the Survivor Support Program. The feedback received from participants continues to reveal their experience of support and empowerment. To that end, we will continue to strive for expansion and improvement by increasing our reach to digital participants and hope to increase our budget and capacity to serve more survivors. 75410 0 150000 Research - Project SOAR: (Speaking Our African American Realities) continues to evolve. We officially began investigations to develop interventions based on our original 2020 findings. Project SOAR seeks to better understand the unique challenges Black women with breast cancer face, and its psychological impacts. We returned to the original three California cities. Sacramento and Oakland Gatherings were held in person and Los Angeles was held virtually. Our aim was to find out if the Gatherings influenced how they navigated the COVID-19 pandemic. An overwhelming majority responded that the experience of the Gatherings greatly influenced their choice to prioritize self-care over caring for others, which improved their psychological well-being. 219371 0 150000 Advocacy: We believe that informed citizens are empowered patients. Therefore, Carries TOUCH uses an Ethnocentric Patient Centered approach to illuminate patient voices that drive public policy. We hosted three virtual policy education and engagement events. We prioritized the following public policy and advocacy goals:1) Discussions on how to access high-quality care for patients, including access to the best treatments regardless of cost and access to Medicaid and Medicare. 2) How to alleviate patient burden by identifying policy barriers to inclusion, systemic hurdles, financial toxicity, and barriers to accessing new and innovative treatments. 3)Breaking down the impact of the then, recently passed Inflation Reduction Act on patients. These initiatives have significantly contributed to the empowerment of Black women and women of color in understanding the importance of getting involved in holding policy makers accountable in ensuring all patients can successfully navigate the healthcare system, have access to high-quality care, and can participate in shared decision-making. 430181 true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 0 0 true 1 true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false X 8 4 false false false false false false false true true false false true true true true true false true true false CA X Clanci Cochran 9165336972 5960 S LAND PARK DR 225 SACRAMENTO CA 95822 TAMMIE DENYSE PRESIDENT 5960 S LAND PARK DR #225, SACRAMENTO, CA 95822 40.00 X 111102 0 0 David DeLuz Treasurer 5960 S LAND PARK DR #225, SACRAMENTO, CA 95822 10.00 X 0 0 0 Clanci Cochran Chair 5960 S LAND PARK DR #225, SACRAMENTO, CA 95822 12.00 X 2500 0 0 Schaundra Nelson Secretary 5960 S LAND PARK DR #225, SACRAMENTO, CA 95822 5.00 X 0 0 0 Michele Lites Board Member 5960 S LAND PARK DR #225, SACRAMENTO, CA 95822 2.00 X 0 0 0 Mazuri Colley Board Member 5960 S LAND PARK DR #225, SACRAMENTO, CA 95822 2.00 X 0 0 0 Michael Bland Board Member 5960 S LAND PARK DR #225, SACRAMENTO, CA 95822 2.00 X 0 0 0 Meg Hanhan Board Member 5960 S LAND PARK DR #225, SACRAMENTO, CA 95822 2.00 X 0 0 0 113602 0 0 1 false false false 1497 62107 63604 SURVIVOR SUPPORT 900099 10000 0 0 EDUCATION 900099 150000 0 0 ADVOCACY 900099 150000 0 0 310000 1497 373604 310000 0 0 113602 73327 40275 0 178 0 178 0 9811 9311 500 0 8466 0 8466 0 282378 221045 61333 0 1174 0 1174 0 2951 0 2951 0 150 150 1158 802 356 0 1084 0 1084 0 5413 1854 3559 0 9333 0 9333 0 38721 38621 100 0 1255 256 326 673 1808 628 1180 0 SURVIVOR SUPPORT 71000 71000 0 0 Education 8388 8388 0 0 ADVOCACY 4949 4949 0 0 340 0 340 0 562159 430181 131155 823 905950 717395 0 905950 717395 15000 0 15000 X 750950 414796 155000 287599 905950 702395 905950 717395 -188555 X false false false X 0 197200 510785 796632 760282 373604 2638503 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 197200 510785 796632 760282 373604 2638503 0 2638503 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 2638503 1.00000 1.00000 X 0 0 0 Pt VI, Line 11b Prior to filing, Form 990 was reviewed by the President, the Board Chair, and the Board Treauserer.
