OCRA advocates on Capitol Hill to improve research and education, drug and diagnostic safety, and access to quality care for all members of the ovarian and gynecologic cancer community. To date, OCRA has helped secure more than $3.8 billion in federal funding.
Chad Ramsey, OCRA’s Vice President of Policy, writes a monthly update with behind-the-scenes reports to keep you current on the latest news from our Advocate Leaders and policy team.
Now that I can, I’m traveling again and one of my goals this year is to advocate for ovarian cancer [research] because I finally have the chance.
