hereditary breast and ovarian cancer society of alberta

The Hereditary Breast and Ovarian (HBOC) Society is a magnanimous, non-benefit association consolidated in 2002. The Society is governed by a Board of Directors and upheld by an Advisory Council of experts in medical, legal and clinical issues pertinent to the work of the Society. Members related to this society are directly or indirectly influenced by HBOC syndrome, joined together their skills, abilities and passion to make a difference for both today and future generations. Their principle mission is to represent, support and educate people, families and communities affected by the hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC) syndrome. To achieve their mission they are spreading awareness: The general population and even many of the medical expertss are unaware or misinformed about the HBOC syndrome.  Even worse, more than 80% of HBOC syndrome carriers are unaware about their status, so they can’t do anything to save their lives.  As per the study that turned out after Angelina Jolie-Pitt’s reveal, the public is currently more aware that a hereditary cancer component exists, yet at the same time know very little about it. Lack of general awareness aids to lack of emotional support for carriers and their families for the tough choices.  Confirmed HBOC syndrome carriers are not always aware of all of the issues that they and other carriers have to face. They are effectively required in standard media battles, online networking and have and keep on being included in different news media.  Young HBOC Society members recently spearheaded the Risky Genes Awareness Project. By advocacy: There are such a large number of issues confronting those with HBOC syndrome.  For example, current current sit tight times for government-paid genetic testing and preventative surgery are long.  Some HBOC syndrome carriers are being diagnosed to have cancer during the long wait so; society members are actively involved in campaigning endeavours where required. By their administrations:  An HBOC syndrome carrier’s needs can be complicated, far-reaching and multi-faceted.  A large array of supports and services are required for the carrier and their relatives who may likewise be carriers.  Friends and family battle too with fear of cancer, outcomes of chemotherapy and/or extreme danger reduction surgery or cancer diagnoses.  Where existing services do exist, hold up times can be long.   We promote, support and help to start-up and expansion of focused services such as multi-disciplinary HBOC syndrome clinics. By new and advanced research in this field: Funding opportunities have been extremely constrained.  As a result so is the research accessible to guide care and help HBOC syndrome carriers make life-saving choices. The larger cancer backing organizations have not generally funded their hereditary component proportionately.  Researchers Specialists are starting to begin to expose what's underneath however there is so far to go.  Till date, body part removal surgery provides the only alternative to decrease cancer risk the most, and there are still no true directed treatments for hereditary cancer.  They strive to rise funding to ensure superior options for generations to come. By providing education: They teach individuals, families, their associated medical groups and the public.  This incorporates yet is not restricted to an informational website, speaking engagements, monthly bulletin, various promotional materials and an annual conference. By support:  They seek out and link those directly and indirectly affected by HBOC syndrome.  Provide peer support and a variety of chances to get intricate. With their Vision and believe that those individuals and families impacted by the HBOC syndrome should have opportune access to quality health information and amenities.  They believe and respect that each individual has the right to pick their own path to health.  They believe in the value of care while respecting the privacy of individuals and their families affected by the HBOC syndrome. Other societies deal only with a part of the picture, i.e. just breast cancer, and often focus very slight on their hereditary component. There are furthermore more HBOC syndrome carriers than we ever imagined and with or without risk-reduction selections our journey never ends.
