Welcome to ICCCPO's Web Site


The International Confederation of Childhood Cancer Parent Organisations (ICCCPO) is a worldwide network of organisations of parents of children with cancer.  

It was founded in May 1994 in Valencia, Spain, and now has membership of about 100 organisations from over 60 countries. 

Our focus is on the cooperation and sharing of information and experiences between parent groups around around the world, so that all can benefit from it and become more effective in improving the treatment and care of children with cancer in their own countries. 

About the Web Site
 

This web site is intended to be a major resource for parent organisations, and individual parents, throughout the world.  

It contains:

- information about parent organisations around the world;

- a wide range of articles relevant to childhood cancer, and to the establishment and running of parent groups; 

- and it provides links to sites which contain information of value for parents and their families.
