DenseBreast-info

What DenseBreast-info does

DenseBreast-info, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization founded in 2014 and headquartered in Deer Park, New York. It operates densebreast-info.org, a web-based educational platform that delivers breast density information to two primary audiences: patients seeking to understand dense breast tissue and supplemental screening options, and healthcare providers (radiologists, OB/GYNs, primary care physicians, breast surgeons, nurse practitioners, and mammographers) needing current clinical guidance and continuing education. Core products include patient fact sheets, brochures, a video series ("Let's Talk About Dense Breasts"), provider CME/CE courses on dense breasts and supplemental screening, screening-technology comparisons across 2D/3D mammography, ultrasound, MRI, contrast-enhanced mammography, molecular breast imaging, and mammography AI tools, and a legislative hub tracking FDA national dense breast reporting, state insurance maps, and the federal Find It Early Act.

The organization's go-to-market is community-led: content marketing through the website, an email newsletter segmented by location and provider status, partnerships with medical societies and universities that distribute DBI resources, and the annual World Dense Breast Day awareness campaign on September 30th. Revenue is generated through donations from individuals and a Corporate Supporters program, with all educational content and resources provided at no cost to end users. The technology stack is a WordPress-based content platform with email distribution via Constant Contact and donation processing via Give Lively. The organization also operates a dedicated European site (/europe/), signaling modest international scope beyond its primary US footprint.
