This Task Force is concerned with and addresses the widening disparity in breast cancer mortality in Chicago among women of color. The MCBCTF strives to improve breast cancer care for all women across Metropolitan Chicago. The disparities consist of lack of available detection centers, poor mammography quality and poor follow up and treatment.
