About Us

BRCAcommunity.com

BRCAcommunity.com is a resource which was created for the Jewish community to help educate about BRCA-related hereditary breast and ovarian cancer. The website was developed by genetic counselors, scientists, and geneticists at the Program for Jewish Genetic Health, and the information provided was reviewed thoroughly for accuracy. You can contact us at BRCA@montefiore.org or at JewishGeneticHealth@montefiore.org with any questions or concerns.

 

The Program for Jewish Genetic Health

The Program for Jewish Genetic Health (PJGH) is an umbrella program of the Albert Einstein College of Medicine (Einstein) and Montefiore Medical Center that aims to promote good health through education, genetic testing resources, and population research. One key element of the program resides in educating the various sectors of the Jewish community about Jewish genetic health issues and solutions.
