To help realize the vision of the new The Arthur J.E. Child Comprehensive Cancer Centre, the Calgary Cancer Project is partnering with patients, families, staff, physicians and the community throughout planning, design and construction phases.

We acknowledge that the city of Calgary and the new The Arthur J.E. Child Comprehensive Cancer Centre exist on the traditional and ancestral territory of the Niitsitapi. We are grateful to live, work and play on these lands where the Blackfoot, Tsuut’ina, Stoney Nakoda and the Métis peoples have lived and cared for these lands for generations and we acknowledge the gifts provided by Elders and Knowledge Keepers. We recognize the First Nations, Métis Nation of Alberta Region 3 and the many urban First Nations, Métis and Inuit whose cancer care may be entrusted to those of us working in the current and new The Arthur J.E. Child Comprehensive Cancer Centre.. We make this acknowledgement as an act of reconciliation and gratitude to those whose territory on which we live.
