About this camp

Young Siblings Camp is for children ages 6-12 who have a parent or sibling who has cancer or is in remission or has passed away. A cancer diagnosis affects the entire family and these camps give siblings/children a special week of their own. Participants get the chance to meet and connect with peers who have shared experiences and may be facing similar challenges.
