Event Details

SCWIST invites you to kick off the summer with a great informative event: Knowledge is Power, presented by Ovarian Cancer Canada. Each year, approximately 2600 women are diagnosed with ovarian cancer in Canada, and 1750 will not survive.  Arm yourself with knowledge: learn about on the signs and symptoms of the disease and how you can reduce your risk.  This event is also a great opportunity to network with fellow SCWIST members.
