In addition to research, OCC funds vital support programs. Oncology teams are incredible but they are unable to provide enough support for well being and patient education. OCC workshops and materials provide the latest ovarian cancer research in plain language so we can approach our our doctors in an informed way about new treatments and clinical trials. They offer resources on diverse topics such as safe and effective exercise and movement, evidence led approaches to complementary medicine, palliative care, forums with other ovarian cancer survivors and much more. I was a bit lost until I was connected to Ovarian Cancer Canada and would not have managed as well without them. 

Thank you for your support. It means the world to me, and everyone affected by this disease.
