Calgary Cancer Centre
To help realize the vision of the new Calgary Cancer Centre (CCC), the Calgary Cancer Project is partnering with patients, families, staff, physicians and the community throughout planning, design and construction phases.
In addition, the Calgary Cancer Project will be using this page to report back on collaboration so far and ask for input on new initiatives.
Construction of the Calgary Cancer Centre (CCC) continues to be on time and on budget. PCL Construction is working closely with Alberta Infrastructure, Alberta Health and Alberta Health Services to ensure that impacts resulting from COVID-19 are closely monitored and that all public health recommendations are followed. If you have questions about COVID-19, please visit www.alberta.ca/covid19.
To get familiar with the project, explore the following reports. Check back regularly as more exciting information about the CCC will be shared over the coming months.

Share how the new Calgary Cancer Centre is building hope.
Click on 'add your idea' below to upload a photo along with a brief description about why it represents hope.
Through images taken by patients, families, AHS staff, physicians and the general public, #buildinghope will share snapshots of hope, courage, research, partnership, community, etc. The snapshots can be of a simple portrait, a pink ribbon, a mother with her child – examples of what Albertans see the building representing, or building for them.
Once received, a selection of these photos will be chosen by AHS to become part of a photo mosaic that spells the word HOPE. As the CCC is being built, the mosaic will take shape and grow, such that in the end, the full mosaic will be displayed in a prominent location in the CCC.
In addition to submitting via posting on Twitter, we are are also collecting photos here.
Privacy and consent: By uploading a photo, participants are providing AHS with their consent to use their image(s) in the mosaic, promotional materials and social media. Participants can get their images removed by simply contacting calgary.cancercentre@albertahealthservices.ca .
