Welcome to CQ
New Campers & Families
Welcome to Camp Quality! Our programs are exciting and provide a safe place for kids to build self-confidence, develop skills, make new friends, and have fun. At CQ, kids with cancer are free to define themselves without the stigma of illness. Campers attend the camp closest to them. Companions (camp counsellors) work alongside campers to provide any assistance and ensure they have the support they need at camp.
We offer a wide range of programs, with summer overnight camper programs for kids 7-17 years of age, virtual programs for kids 5-17 years old, and community programs for the whole family.
Understanding that childhood cancer affects the entire family, Camp Quality programs are also offered for siblings, including bereaved siblings. By participating in camp, siblings are able to build connections, join a supportive community and enjoy engaging activities! Camp provides a way to strengthen sibling connections and offers a safe space for them to express themselves.
Our programs are free of charge.
