LBBC Survivorsâ€™ Helpline (888) 753-LBBC (5222)
https://www.kintera.com/accounttempf...ry-phonebw.jpgDo you want to talk to someone who understands what you are facing? For support, consider calling the LBBC Survivors' Helpline, a national, toll-free telephone service staffed by trained volunteers affected by breast cancer. Helpline volunteers are dedicated to offering guidance, information and peer support in a confidential setting. A woman affected by breast cancer will answer the phone live on Tuesdays from 11:00 am to 3:00 pm ET. At any other time, leave a message and a volunteer will return your call within 24 hours. Our personalized matching service connects you with women in similar circumstances. Spanish-speaking Helpline volunteers are available.
