Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Mentor Integration Project

This study will investigate the benefits of CHESS, a Human Cancer Mentor and the potential additional benefit of combining CHESS and a Cancer Mentor compared to Internet access for women diagnosed with breast cancer. Our goal is to advance interactive cancer communication systems, thus improving quality of life for patients and families facing cancer, especially underserved populations.

Primary Aims:

* Determine if the Internet, CHESS, a Cancer Mentor, or a combination of CHESS and the Cancer Mentor improve quality of life for women with breast cancer
* Determine which of the above conditions is most effective
* Determine which of the above conditions is most cost efficient
