Important Event Update - New Date Set for 10/23
After postponing the event due to Hurricane IDA we have a new date of October 23rd, with activities beginning at 8am and the Strut at 10am.
Sista Strut - New Orleans
The goal of Sista Strut is to heighten awareness about the issues of breast cancer in women of color, as well as provide information on community resources. Studies show that African American women are more likely to get breast cancer at a younger age and have a death rate from breast cancer greater than that of Caucasian women of the same age. Sista Strut recognizes the strength of survivors, their family and friends, heightens awareness, promotes early detection and the search for a cure.
New for 2021: Registration fee includes shipping costs, and all participants will have their shirts/bags shipped directly to them. In order to receive your shirt before the event on 9/4, you must register by August 15th. Participants who register after August 15th will receive their shirt around 2 weeks after the event takes place.
· African American women in the US have a 41% higher death rate from breast cancer than white women.
· African American women are more likely than white women to be diagnosed with breast cancer before age 40 and are more likely to be diagnosed with larger tumors.
· Awareness of these issues will help survival rates with earlier diagnoses.
