Overview
Pediatric Oncology Group of Ontario (POGO) works to ensure that everyone affected by childhood cancer has access to the best care and support. We partner to achieve an excellent childhood cancer care system for children, youth, their families, survivors and healthcare teams in Ontario and beyond. POGO champions childhood cancer care, and as the collective voice of this community, is the official advisor to Ontario’s Ministry of Health (the Ministry) on children’s cancer control and treatment. POGO is a non-profit organization with charitable status, here for kids with cancer, for now, for life. POGO is an enduring collaboration with hospitals in Ontario with responsibility for diagnosing childhood cancer, and treating patients and survivors. Approximately 40 POGO team members are affiliated with the main POGO office, and many others work in POGO programs at partner hospitals across Ontario. POGO is committed to putting equity at the heart of everything we do. We believe diverse perspectives strengthen our ability to deliver on this mission, and that to achieve our vision of excellence requires an environment in which everyone feels welcomed and valued, including our team, and those we serve and with whom we work. We are taking action to: • Have our organization reflect the diverse community we serve • Empower people from all backgrounds to do their best work in support of our mission • Reduce barriers to our programs and services • Be a positive voice to address inequities in the broader childhood cancer system • Educate ourselves on issues of systemic racism, diversity, equity and inclusion to help us be positive agents of change For more information, visit www.pogo.ca.
