Description:

The Cancer in Young People in Canada (CYP-C) program is a national, population-based surveillance system studying all children and youth with cancer in Canada. CYP-C collects information on children and youth with cancer including treatments, complications, and outcomes. For this population, CYP-C aims to help us to better understand risk factors, improve outcomes, enhance the quality and accessibility of care, and reduce late effects. CYP-C is fully funded and managed by the Public Health Agency of Canada in partnership with the C17 Council, the network of all the seventeen children’s cancer hospitals across the country.
