For those diagnosed with breast cancer, navigating treatment is complex with many different clinicians and health services involved. BCNA has developed My Journey, a digital resource that provides tailored, high quality, evidence-based information and insights for those affected by breast cancer. My Journey was developed with assistance from breast cancer specialists. My Journey offers information and support tailored to specific needs based on browsing history and each person’s stages of their breast cancer experience, with dedicated pathways for those diagnosed with Early Breast Cancer, Ductal Carcinoma in Situ, Metastatic Breast Cancer and post treatment. It provides immediate updates as new insights, research and treatment options become available

I wanted to prepare myself. I believe knowledge is power and I didn’t want to be in the dark. My Journey was able to follow me throughout my treatment so I could access information that was suitable to me at that time. The information is compassionate, supportive and kind.
