Timeline
Interventions
The TICAA has three components in four languages (English, Mandarin Chinese, Korean, and Japanese): (a) social media sites; (b) interactive online educational sessions; and (c) online resources. The social media sites provide a mechanism by which participants can receive coaching/support from culturally matched peers and health care providers. The educational sessions provide information about general and sub-ethnic- specific topics related to breast cancer survivorship. The online resources include 35 Web links to resources related to breast cancer survivorship from scientific authorities and from general and sub-ethnic-specific health organizations/institutes.
The American Cancer Society (ACS) webpage has a wide range of information on breast cancer including prevention, treatment, and ways to connect with breast cancer survivors.
