The Cabarrus Chamber is helping spread the word about an opportunity for local businesses, churches, community organizations, and other groups to support women’s health by hosting a mobile mammography screening event.
The Atrium Health Cabarrus Mobile Mammography Coach brings convenient, digital mammography services directly into the community, making breast cancer screenings more accessible to women close to where they live, work, and worship.
With 1 in 8 women expected to develop breast cancer in their lifetime, access to regular screenings and early detection is important. Hosting a mobile mammography event is one way organizations can help make preventive healthcare more accessible to women throughout Cabarrus and Rowan counties.
Why Host a Mammography Event?
Hosting a screening event offers several benefits to your organization and the community:
- No cost to your organization.
- Supports women’s health in the community.
- Provides convenient access to breast cancer screenings.

- A safe, accessible, mostly level parking area.
- A minimum of seven participants.
