"The BWRC Fund has also helped expand cancer education programs across the state. Survivors Teaching Students, a program sponsored by the Colorado Ovarian Cancer Alliance (COCA), brings ovarian cancer survivors into the lives of medical students with the goal of helping them become more sensitive to the symptoms of and risk factors for ovarian cancer.
