Summary

This study aims to increase the number of women in Puerto Rico who get regular mammograms to catch breast cancer early. It will involve about 1,020 women aged 40-74 who are behind on screenings. Community health workers and navigators will provide education and support, and some clinics will get extra help to make screening easier.
