MOCA WALKING GROUP
Find support and stay active! Survivors, loved ones and caregivers meet monthly to walk and find connection.
This group meets outdoors during the summer months and indoors during the colder months. Locations and dates vary month to month.
MOCA YOUNG SURVIVOR NETWORK
We define young survivors as those women dealing with a gynecologic cancer diagnosis before menopause. We invite you to join the group to explore issues unique to young survivors of all types of gynecologic cancers. Young survivors range in age from late teens to mid-40s, but there is no age requirement to join the group!
The YSN plans events and activities throughout the year. MOCA also has a network of YSN Mentors who can provide support and information over the phone. Young survivors of ovarian and gynecologic cancers can also connect online through a private Facebook group.

MEN OF MOCA
Ovarian cancer doesn’t just impact women – partners, husbands, brothers, friends and more are impacted when a woman is diagnosed with ovarian cancer. MOCA provides peer-to-peer support for men through our Men of MOCA support group and mentor program.
