Events

At BreastReconstruction.org, we host a variety of events that educate, empower, and bring people together. From intimate gatherings to large-scale campaigns, our events raise critical awareness about breast reconstruction options and help fund the work we do to support patients and providers. Whether you are attending a panel, joining an Instagram Live, or participating in a community fundraiser, every event plays a role in helping people access clear, compassionate, and comprehensive information. Every story we share and every dollar we raise brings us closer to a future where everyone feels informed and supported in their journey. We invite you to join us!

Resilience

October 24, 2024

“Resilience” follows one woman’s life after a difficult recovery following risk-reducing mastectomies. Despite many challenges, Lisa Csencsits rises to become a contender for the US National Cycling Championships, thanks in part to a gene that gives her an extraordinary ability to convert oxygen into energy. Her story and her genetics are deeply intertwined, as she inherited both a high risk for breast cancer and the oxygen conversion that gives breath to her cycling from her maternal side.
