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.

Spotlight on our Patient & Family Advisory Council

The project has been partnering with our Patient & Family Advisory Council (PFAC) since 2014. The group was formally created in September 2014 and consists of 16 volunteer members from Calgary and southern Alberta. PFAC meets monthly and works toward supporting the vision of providing patient and family centred care at Tom Baker Cancer Centre as well as for the new Calgary Cancer Centre.

The Patient & Family Advisory Council recently produced a video to share what it means to partner with the Calgary Cancer Project team and their vision for the Calgary Cancer Centre. View it here. 

Do you have anything to share with the Council or have a question?
