Sessions will be hybrid (in-person or virtual) per participant preference. 2. Monthly check-in: Monthly check-ins (\~5-10 minutes) about their supportive care and social determinants of health needs over 16 weeks. 3. Scheduling of outpatient supportive oncology appointment if interested. 4. Community linkage: Warm hand offs and connection to community resources to enhance access to support groups, educational workshops, and healthy lifestyle services.
Phone sessions
6 weekly phone sessions, approximately 10 minutes in length each, to review breast cancer and supportive and palliative care resources in NYC and online. The 6 weekly phone sessions will include the topics discussed in the intervention arm but will be informational in nature. The phone sessions will be followed by monthly check-ins (\~5 minutes) to review and answer questions about the resources for the duration of 16 weeks.
