BAKERSFIELD, Calif. (KERO) — Links for Life and Kern Medical brought a mobile 3D mammography unit to the community Saturday, offering free breast cancer screenings to women who lack health insurance or face high out-of-pocket costs.
Maria Quiñones said it was her daughter who helped her access the free screening.
There are more than 4 million breast cancer survivors in the U.S.Huerta said free screenings consistently draw large turnouts.
Becerra learned about the event through social media and said she values the availability of free health resources.
The nonprofit funds the free screenings through grants.
