CANCER101 launched in 2002 and we initially distributed 150 breast cancer planners throughout NYC. In 2010, we expanded to over 23 cancers, and we have steadily expanded our reach to over 100,000 planners annually.
Today, our tools are distributed in over 1,200 hospitals and community practices, at the point of care. We also distribute our resources directly to patients and their care partners. Our distribution spans across all 50 states and Canada. We have also received requests from over 40 countries.
