Our History: After being diagnosed with ovarian cancer in 2009, Kathleen Maxian felt the isolation and fear that comes with a new diagnosis of Ovarian Cancer, and did not know where to turn to find reliable information. In 2012 Maxian founded the Ovarian Cancer Project in response to a need for local support and evidence based information for women with ovarian & gynecologic cancer, their families and friends. Since that time the Ovarian Cancer Project has become an essential source of trusted information, guidance and support.
