Our Mission: To empower all women affected by breast cancer to live as long as possible with the best quality of life. Our History: LBBC was founded in 1991 by radiation oncologist Marisa C. Weiss, MD, in response to a woman's need for breast-cancer-related information, connection and support after completing treatment. In our early years, Dr. Weiss ran LBBC out of the third floor of her home using volunteers. Few resources existed for women affected by breast cancer, and LBBC focused exclusively on the post-treatment experience. In 1996, Jean Sachs, MSS, MLSP, became Living Beyond Breast Cancer’s first executive director. Ms. Sachs has increased LBBC’s budget from $100,000 to $1.8 million per year, increased the size of the staff and expanded our programs and services.
