EMPOWERING SURVIVORS. supporting fighters. TRANSForming OUTCOMES.

Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women in India — yet the survival rate remains below 65%, especially in rural areas. Many women face delays in diagnosis, confusion during treatment, emotional stress, and financial barriers. We are here to change that.

WHAT IS THE PATIENT NAVIGATOR PROGRAM?

The Patient Navigator Program is a survivor-led initiative designed to guide and support breast cancer patients throughout their treatment journey. Our navigators are cured breast cancer survivors who have walked this path and now volunteer to help others find clarity, courage, and continuity in care.

Recruitment

We onboard survivor volunteers committed to helping others.

Training

A 4-week curriculum equips them with knowledge on cancer care, communication, and emotional support.

Navigators are assessed through simulations before handling real cases.

Support

Navigators are paired with patients across hospitals and communicate via dedicated WhatsApp groups including the patient, caregiver, and medical team.
