As the National Ovarian Cancer Coalition (NOCC) transitions into a regional model to serve more ovarian cancer survivors, caregivers, and families, it is excited to announce its expansion into the Southeast region of the United States.

As NOCC moves boldly forward in 2022 and beyond with its regional approach, we are excited to announce our service expansion into the Southeast region of the United States, led by our Southeast Regional Manager, Nikki Coppola. Since the COVID-19 pandemic, NOCC shifted its programs and services digitally to continue meeting the needs of ovarian cancer survivors, caregivers, and families from coast to coast. This regional model has allowed us to increase our reach to the ovarian cancer community, ensuring that we can support anyone impacted by this disease, no matter where they live or where they are in their journey. As we transition to a hybrid model of in-person and virtual offerings, we are excited to highlight our work across the Southeast region. 

The NOCC offers evidence-based educational programming, direct support services, and community outreach events to raise ovarian cancer awareness and work towards a world where no one will lose their life to this disease. Our full program offerings can be found on our website's programs and resources section. Our Southeast region supports Florida, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, North Carolina, and South Carolina. To learn more about upcoming regional programs and events and how you can get involved as a participant, volunteer, or community partner, please reach out to Nikki Coppola at ncoppola@ovarian.org or at (850) 270-5709.
