Central Ohio

YSC Central Ohio was founded in 2002 and has grown into a powerful community fighting breast cancer in young women. Our goal is to support and unite young women diagnosed with breast cancer through resources, connections and outreach so women feel supported, empowered and hopeful.

YSC Central Ohio supports and unites young women diagnosed with breast cancer through education and advocacy initiatives as well as support programs—from discussion groups to exercise classes to "survivor reach-outs," where local YSC volunteers work together to help other survivors in need. We are committed to fostering a welcoming, safe and diverse community of survivors and their supporters.


We have no events scheduled at this time. Please check back soon for updates.
