No One Should Face Cancer Alone.
Triunfadoras is a cancer survivor support group for Latina women, their families, and caregivers. The program started in 2002 with eight patients and today we have 540 members.
Triunfadoras is the only culturally-sensitive, Spanish-language, on-going cancer support group in Utah.

Hispanic women face unique barriers when diagnosed with and seeking cancer treatment, including cultural misunderstandings about health care, fear, finances, and language barriers. Our Triunfadora Support Group allows a safe space to discuss these barriers and look for solutions within community.

“When a cancer survivor gets an early diagnosis, then the survival rates go up astronomically. It’s very different when you have the resources, the time to put into the health care efforts. That makes a huge difference. All those determinants make a big difference. That’s why we need to push them through the system and help them be responsible for their own health,” Portugal said”
