MN Ovarian Cancer Alliance
Creates and promotes resources for support, networking and education for women diagnosed with ovarian cancer and their families. Connections to resources includes, Transportation, Financial, Household, End of Life and Caregiver Support as examples.
The Minnesota Ovarian Cancer Alliance funds research, provides support to women and families, educates the medical community and raises awareness.
MOCA Cares Kits are designed to provide a bit of comfort to women being treated for ovarian cancer.
A MOCA Cares Kit is a small backpack filled with comfort items designed for women dealing with ovarian cancer. The backpack includes a journal, pen, MOCA mug, organic green tea, fleece blanket, soft socks, teal wristbands, a pin and an inspirational book.
Any ovarian cancer survivor who is currently receiving treatment or is within one year of finishing treatment qualifies for a MOCA Cares Kit. The survivor needs to live in Minnesota or be receiving their care in Minnesota.
MOCA Living Well meetings are educational meetings that MOCA hosts several times a year for survivors, family members and friends. These meetings are free and open to the public and address timely topics relevant to ovarian, fallopian tube or primary peritoneal cancer. These meetings are designed for women, their families and friends at any stage of a diagnosis, treatment and survivorship.
Are you a survivor or caregiver looking for support? The MOCA Mentor Program is a group of MOCA members who are available to connect over the phone and share their stories and experiences with others.
The Mentor Program includes survivors, partners of survivors, daughters who have lost their mothers to ovarian cancer, and friends of survivors.
