We are ever mindful that we are an international organization, a global community, but that there are huge financial gaps between us. We know that no organization- even in affluent countries-have sufficient resources, but you may feel that your organization has more resources than most and that you wish to allocate some funds towards the “parents helping parents” programme to assist other organizations with limited finances to attend this meeting, to learn and share experiences. If this is the case, please contact us at admin@cci.care.

Please check in advance if you require a travel visa to enter Canada, and if this is the case, apply for it timeously. Please, also familiarize yourself with all requirements necessary for the entry in Canada, including travel and health documents. Upon registration to the conference, you will be able to download a Letter of Invitation from SIOP. If you/your organization needs an additional letter from CCI to apply for a visa, please contact the CCI head office at admin@cci.care. We will gladly assist you.
We will continue to share more information as we move forward with the planning for the CCI’s Conference in Ottawa, so please watch your email box.
