ABOUT

Black women are 42% more likely to die from breast cancer than white women. In a systemically biased healthcare system, Black women are often dismissed and ignored, and treated with prejudices that keep them from receiving an equitable standard of care. This needs to change. The Chrysalis Initiative launched ERASE THE LINE, a call to action to end the disparity. We created the world's first digital resource specifically designed for Black women by Black women. The resource provides them with the tools to recognize and address racism in their cancer care, including: 1 - A 24/7 coach who survived breast cancer herself and understands how to steer around bias 2 - A rating/review system to highlight who among healthcare providers are offer equal care and more importantly who doesn't 3 - A bias tracking system, where every patient interaction is monitored and scored to ensure the treatment journey is bias-free
