Private Event

The EmPOWERed Patient Brunch is a patient-centered event involving enriching discussions from the patient perspective. This is an opportunity for patients to share their stories and connect with medical, mental health, and political professionals that are enacting change in this space.

Boston Medical Center’s Fibroid Center is working with our partners at The White Dress Project and the Resilient Sisterhood Project to make this event a success. The mission of The White Dress Project (TWDP) is to raise global awareness about the uterine fibroid (UF) epidemic through education, research, community, and advocacy. They are dedicated to advocating for research funding, highlighting reproductive health inequities, educating many on fibroids and their treatment options, and empowering a community who will advocate for their best health choices and no longer suffer in silence with this chronic illness. Founded in 2012, the Resilient Sisterhood Project (RSP) is a Boston-based non-profit raising awareness and empowering women and young adults of African descent who are affected by diseases of the reproductive system.
