Faith in Action! Breast Cancer Screening for Korean Women

This study, called "Faith in Action!", is testing a church-based program to help Korean American women get screened for breast cancer. It compares two approaches: one uses trained church members (navigators) to provide education and support, and the other offers general healthy behavior information. The goal is to see if the "Faith in Action! Church-based Navigation Model" helps more women follow breast cancer screening guidelines. You may be able to join if you are a Korean woman between 45 and 80 years old, do not have breast cancer, and haven't had a mammogram in the last two years. The study is looking for 320 participants and its current status is unclear.
