Children's Oncology Services, Inc. (COSI) believes that a diagnosis of cancer should not prevent a child from experiencing the simple joys of childhood.

Through the One Step At A Time programs, COSI offers camp experiences and other educational and excursion programs throughout the year that allow children with cancer to just be kids. Our programs offer fun, friendship and support in a safe and nurturing environment.

To help parents and families better understand what camp is like, we have created some Camper Guidelines. Please review with your camper prior to camp. As always, let us know if you have any questions!
