The Rose's Hispanic outreach program began in 1999.

So starting a Spanish version of Let's Talk About Your Breasts is a no-brainer.

Titled Hablemos de Nuestros Senos, Dorothy and Communications Manager Elda Gavidia discuss the expansion of the show. And they emphasize the cultural sensitivity and the need to communicate in the listener's native language.

The stories these women share will inspire and empower breast cancer patients and caregivers alike. Through this new podcast series, The Rose aims to foster a supportive community and provide vital information to women who otherwise wouldn't have access to it. 

Hablemos de Nuestros Senos launches next month, just in time for Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
