Did you know that if you are being treated for cancer, you are at risk for developing blood clots? One in five blood clots are due to cancer and some of its treatments.

To spread awareness, the National Blood Clot Alliance is partnering with LatinaSHARE on a virtual educational event focused on blood clot risks and prevention for cancer patients in the Latina community. Please note that this event will be presented entirely in Spanish.

NBCA Council of Emerging Researchers (CERT) member Dr. Alejandra Gutierrez will lead the discussion on Monday, January 31, 2023 at 3 p.m. ET. Watch the archived webinar here or view the broadcast via on Facebook Live @LatinaSHARE. 

Who is LatinaSHARE? The mission of LatinaSHARE is to provide the Latina community with a unique support system to educate and empower anyone affected by breast, ovarian, uterine, cervical, or metastatic breast cancer.
