Callers can chat online with a social worker or breast cancer survivor at the program. Those wishing to utilize this free service should log on to breast-cancer.adelphi.edu during weekdays, 9 to 5, and click on CHAT. They will either reach someone immediately or receive a message that someone will get back to them shortly.
The Adelphi program, the oldest breast cancer hotline in the country and located on Long Island, has been providing emotional support and information to New Yorkers for 36 years.
The program is funded through the NYS Legislature and Department of Health.
The hotline, which can be reached at 800-877-8077, is still in operation seven days a week.
