Over the past decade, the number and diversity of the Hispanic population in the United States (US) has grown significantly (Aragones, Hayes, Chen, González & Gany, 2014). In 2014, the Hispanic population reached a new high of 55.4 million, which represents 17.4% of the entire US population (Krogstad & Lopez, 2015). Fernández et al. (2009) have reported that Hispanic/Latino women are disproportionally impacted by high rates of breast cancer. Even, even though the prevalence and mortality rates of breast cancer are lower among Hispanic/Latino women than non-Hispanic females (Fernández et al ., 2009). Hispanic/Latino women are more likely to be diagnosed with breast cancer at a later stage than non-Hispanic/Latino women. Moreover, these women have a lower than 5- year breast cancer survival rate that is by 5-years lower than non-Hispanic/Latino women (Molina, Thompson, Espinoza, & Ceballos, 2013).
