Description
The Oral Cancer Foundation (OCF) is a non-profit entity designed to reduce oral cancer suffering and save lives. OCF is also a public service charity designed for advocacy and service, created to promote change in both the public and medical/dental professional sectors. OCF contributes to the reduction of suffering, permanent physical damage and disfigurement, and death caused by this disease through (1) public and professional awareness, (2) prevention through lifestyle changes, (3) early detection initiatives, (4) education, (5) improved treatment modalities, and (6) sponsorship of research. OCF maintains an online patient / survivor forum designed to facilitate the exchange of dialogue between caregivers and oral cancer patients. The forum also facilitates the exchange of ideas related to diagnosis, treatments, symptoms, and ideas related to coping with the oral cancer experience.
