The North Carolina Breast and Cervical Cancer Control Program (NC BCCCP) provides free or low-cost breast and cervical cancer screenings and follow-up to eligible women in North Carolina. Each year, NC BCCCP strives to provide services to over 12,000 women.

NC BCCCP services are offered at most local health departments as well as some community health centers, hospitals and private physicians’ offices across the state for eligible North Carolina women.
