Every Woman's Life Breast Cancer Program

The King George County Health Department participates in the Every Woman's Life (EWL) program, a public health program that helps uninsured, low-income women gain access to free breast cancer screening services.  Screening and early detection reduce death rates and improve treatment options. In some sites where EWL services are offered, women can also be screened for high blood pressure, cholesterol, and glucose and also learn how to become more physically active, eat healthier foods, and more.

Mammography is an important preventive health procedure for women.  For early detection of breast cancer, the best option is regular screening mammograms for women over the age of 40. For detailed information about eligibility guidelines for the EWL program, please visit their website.
