Senator Andrew Lanza is continuing his partnership with Project Renewal’s Scan Van Program to provide free mammography and clinical breast exams on board a 40 foot van to the women across Staten Island. Senator Lanza and Project Renewal are well aware of the importance of educating women about the risk of breast cancer, and the importance of early screening and diagnosis. Women who receive early screening, diagnosis and treatment have an increased chance of survival.
Screenings are available to women 40 and older who have not had a mammogram in the past year. All insurance plans are accepted and co-payments and deductibles are waived. An appointment is necessary and can be made by calling 1-800-564-6868.
