The purpose of this study is to explore the breast cancer screening experiences of women with CP with the aim of identifying factors that could improve screening rates for women with disabilities.
Breast cancer is a major cause of mortality in women. Screening has been known to improve early detection for early treatment. Women with disabilities face many physical and attitudinal barriers to mammogram screenings. This webinar has been created to address the educational needs of technologists and to give women with cp and disabilities visual accurate information about the procedure.
In 2014 the Achieving a Better Life Experience Act was passed. The ABLE account is a tax-advantaged savings account for individuals with disabilities. The individual with the disability is the account owner and anyone can contribute to the account – the account beneficiary, family, friends, even a Special Needs Trust.
A special needs trust is a written legal agreement that enables an individual with a disability to qualify or remain qualified for means tested government benefits, such as medicaid, SSI or even medicaid waivers.
