From the OCNA Website: "Each year, the Ovarian Cancer National Alliance helps secure over $160 million in federal dollars for ovarian cancer research and education programs – money which funds the hunt for an early detection test for ovarian cancer and better therapeutic options for women already diagnosed. This is only possible because of an activated and empowered network of grassroots activists – and we want you to be part of that network! On March 9-10, 2015, please join survivors, caregivers and the Ovarian Cancer National Alliance in Washington, DC to advocate for the programs and research that pave the way for better treatments for ovarian cancer. Your elected officials need to hear from YOU in 2015 to ensure that ovarian cancer research and education programs remain a Congressional priority."
