Danielle M. Dupuy, MPH

Danielle has worked with the Metropolitan Chicago Breast Cancer Task Force since the organization's culminating event, the ‘Call to Action Summit' held in March 2007. During that time, Danielle was involved with the Task Force on a voluntary basis however in September of 2008 she was brought on board as the Sr. Data Coordinator for the Chicago Breast Cancer Quality Consortium, a project of the Task Force. Danielle has since been promoted to Associate Director of the Consortium.

Danielle's educational background includes a B.S in Microbiology and a MPH in International Epidemiology, both from University of Michigan (Ann Arbor). Between receiving her Bachelors and Masters, Danielle spent 1 year in Washington D.C. working on Capitol Hill for former Congressman Rob Portman. She has a particular interest in women's health issues and has spent time in India and Mexico working on health projects related to women's health. Upon graduating from the University of Michigan with her masters, Danielle accepted a position with the Sinai Urban Health Institute (SUHI) as an evaluator of a maternal and child health program on the west side of Chicago. Once Danielle began working in Chicago she became aware of the gross racial health disparities that exist throughout the city, particularly in the field of breast cancer. As her own mother lost her battle with breast cancer in 1997, Danielle is passionate and dedicated to the work of the Task Force and will continue to do what she can to improve breast cancer outcomes for women, especially the underserved.
