Judy Caldwell

Sixteen years ago Judy Caldwell bravely presented her breast cancer story to a federal committee advocating for universal screening and early treatment. Today, Judy’s recommendations remain relevant, meaningful and serve as the cornerstone of the work undertaken by the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation. Since that seminal 1992 presentation in Ottawa, Judy has been a constant presence, building a community of hope through her establishment of the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation BC/Yukon division, as a founding paddler of Abreast in a Boat Society and as the first lay member of the Screening Mammography Program of BC. Judy Caldwell’s passion, energy and courage have inspired others to work towards a future without breast cancer.
