Assemblymen Conte and Raia Welcome the New York State Breast Cancer and Support Education Network to Albany

 (Long Island, N.Y.) Assemblymen Jim Conte (R,I,C,WF-Huntington Station) and Andrew Raia (R,I,C-East Northport) welcome the New York State Breast Cancer Support & Education Network (NYSBCSEN) to Albany.  The group was visiting to thank the Assemblymen for a grant they helped secure which went toward funding the 2009 Guide to Services.  The group also thanked Assemblymen Conte and Raia for their ongoing support of the 220,000 women and men living each day with breast cancer in New York.

The 2009 Guide to Services lists breast cancer support and education services provided by 19 NYSBCSEN member organizations located in communities from Buffalo to Long Island.

Assemblyman Conte suggests that individuals interested in obtaining further information on breast cancer should contact the Huntington Breast Cancer Action Coalition at 631-547-1518 or visit www.hbcac.org.
