Our mission is to help Women of Courage facing a gynecologic cancer diagnosis find New Hope by fostering an atmosphere of compassion, support and learning. Our goal is to ensure every woman, including her family, feels the support she needs to face and cope with the challenges of a gynecologic cancer diagnosis.
We serve 22 counties in southwest and central Missouri.
