October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and Fulton County’s Women’s Health Division has a breast and cervical cancer prevention program at six health centers. A Northside location is at the North Fulton Regional Health Center, 3155 Royal Drive, Alpharetta.

The program provides exams and mammograms at no cost to uninsured, income-eligible Fulton residents ages 40-64 who haven’t had mammograms in more than a year. Women ages 35-39 who have had breast problems or are at risk for cancer may also be able to receive services. Information: 404-612-1640.
