I began my journey with OAK in 2003 with my moms diagnosis. She and I attended survivor and caregiver support groups, volunteered as well. I continue my relationship with OAK even after my mom passed. The education OAK provides is the best and always working to reach the community. Awareness is the best until a test!!
They support local women Who are battling ovarian cancer. They provide educational, emotional and other support.
OAK is an incredible organization. It not only provides support for those whose lives are closely linked to ovarian cancer but reaches out far beyond that to provide learning opportunities for those in health care and the community at large. They are a small but highly motivated group.
