Jeri Francoeur

Vice President, Public Policy & Grants Chair

Jeri Francoeur has a Master's Degree in Sport and Emergency Medicine from the University of Florida and spent the last 38 years in the medical field as a health care provider.  After her initial diagnosis of breast cancer in October, 2003, she changed her focus from sports medicine and trauma to breast cancer oncology.   Since that time her passion has been advocacy at the local, state and national levels working as a patient advocate, navigating women through the health care system to make sure they receive the care they need.  Jeri's level of advocacy knows no bounds and may involve helping someone find funding for treatment, obtain second opinions, get entered into clinical trials or be better informed about their options.
