As word spread about the free mammograms, calls to the program for additional breast health services as well as other women’s health care services began to escalate.

Over time, it became apparent that despite the availability of a wide variety of free and low cost women’s health care services in Kane County, it was often difficult for women to access those services. Although health care professionals and social service agencies have long had access to volumes of local resources, the average citizen has not.

Thus, the idea was born to create a directory of free and low cost women’s breast health and other health care services for consumer use.

While every effort was made to provide a comprehensive listing of services, we no doubt missed a few. Anyone wishing to be added to the Internet version of the directory is encouraged to call the Helpline.
