MONROE, La. (KNOE) - The Louisiana Cancer Foundation’s Director of Operations Susie Runkle joined Good Morning ArkLaMiss to talk about available free breast screening appointments.

Runkle says the appointments are available to women 40 and up - or younger, if there is a direct family history of breast cancer.

HPV cervical screenings are also available.

The screenings will be Oct. 28 from 9 a.m. to 3:45 p.m. (mammograms only this day - no HPV screening available) and Oct. 29 from 8 a.m. to 2:15 p.m.

Appointments are required, and must be scheduled by Oct. 23.
