MOCA coordinates a speaker's bureau for community and local education. MOCA Dream Awards are awards granted to ovarian cancer survivors in the state of Minnesota to help fulfill a dream of theirs. MOCA is currently accepting applications for these awards, which will be announced in October. Please see www.mnovarian.org for more information.
