YSC Central Indiana was formed on September 10, 2000, through the efforts of seven young breast cancer survivors. The affiliate is active in the breast cancer community, partnering with many of the other organizations in Central Indiana. In addition to our commitment to advocate and educate "that young women can and do get breast cancer," we participate in many area events, and provide social opportunities for group members.
