Nominations for the 2026 Dicey Scroggins Distinguished Advocate Award
We are thrilled to announce that we are now accepting your recommendations for the Dicey Scroggins Distinguished Advocate Award through April 3, 2026.
Named in honor of Mary Dicey Jackson Scroggins, founder of the International Gynecologic Cancer Advocacy Network, this award recognizes advocates and advocacy organizations that provide active, dedicated service to patients/survivors, families, and caregivers—on a local, regional, or international level—and persistently engage in the fight against gynecologic and other cancers.
If you know of an organization or individual who has demonstrated their dedication to gynecologic cancer patient outreach, we encourage you to make a submission. Self-nominations are accepted.
Recognition
The Dicey Scroggins Distinguished Advocate Award ceremony will be held during the IGCS Advocacy Summit October 3, 2026, in Montréal, Canada, held in conjunction with the Annual Global Meeting. Award recipient(s) will be announced through the IGCS and IGCAN communication channels prior to the Summit.
