Our Story
The Patty Brisben Foundation was created to provide continuing education, critically important research and community programming all designed to further enhance the quality of information and health services provided to all women.
According the American Cancer Society, approximately 1,400,000 new cancer cases are expected to be diagnosed in 2008 and over 50% of those affected say that intimacy after cancer is not addressed by the medical profession. Yet, the lives of these individuals and their spouses are profoundly touched! The Foundation has been established to improve the quality of lives of women impacted by cancer and their families to help improve their overall intimate health.
But women with cancer are not the only ones struggling to cope with intimacy related issues. Women who suffer from chronic illnesses, obesity, body image issues, pain or emotional issues all need a place to turn for help. The Patty Brisben Foundation wants to be that place for all women, but we need your support!
We urge you to join us by making a contribution to the Foundation. We believe the work of this Foundation will result in significant contributions to women’s health and we hope you agree and will join us in this endeavor as we continue to break down barriers and stereotypes surrounding sexuality.
