From Tay-Sachs to BRCA-- Saving Lives with Modern Genetic Testing
Wednesday, October 20 at 1:00 ET
We know that you care about your own health and you care about keeping your friends, family, and community healthy. · Did you know that genetic testing for cancer risk can save your life? · Did you know that genetic testing for reproductive risk can save your baby’s life?
Learn about how JScreen is making genetic testing accessible while debunking the many misconceptions people have about this important topic.
JScreen is a national non-profit at-home education and genetic screening program which includes screening for diseases common in Ashkenazi, Sephardi, and Mizrahi backgrounds as well as the general population. And post-screening counseling too.
Please join online to hear Boston mayoral candidates Annissa Essaibi George and Michelle Wu share their visions and commitments for improving life in Boston for older adults. 2Life is proud to join more than a dozen senior, civic and community organizations to present “Candidate Forum: A Vision for Boston’s Seniors” Wednesday, October 27, 2021 from 4-5 p.m.
The event will be co-moderated by 2Life Communities President and CEO Amy Schectman and Rogerson Communities President and CEO Walter J. Ramos and will focus on issues related to affordable housing and supportive services for elders; connection to care and services; racial equity; and climate justice. We hope to see you there!
