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

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
