DEADLINE: April 25

NBCC’s Project LEAD is the premier science training program for breast cancer advocates. At the annual Project LEAD Institute, students prepare to engage in a wide range of local and national forums where breast cancer decisions are made.

During the six-day course, renowned research faculty teach advocates the basics of cancer biology, genetics, epidemiology, research design, and advocacy, providing them with a foundation of scientific knowledge upon which they can strengthen and empower themselves as activists.

After completing the course, Project LEAD graduates bring an educated consumer perspective and critical thinking skills to the important issues and controversies in breast cancer, from reviewing research proposals for new treatment options to lobbying for research funding on Capitol Hill.

**There is no registration or tuition fee, and course materials, content, and meals are provided. Attendees are expected to cover their own travel and stay at the Estancia. Some scholarships are available. Visit the website to learn more.**
