Breast Cancer and the Mikvah

August 4, 2019 @ 10:30 am - 12:00 pm EDT

Melissa K. Rosen, Sharsheret’s Director of National Outreach, will educate mikvah attendants at Mikveh Moshe in Great Neck on how to best meet the needs of women with breast or ovarian cancer attending the mikvah, or ritual bath.
