Why 65 years Matters

This milestone is a moment to honour our history, celebrate our impact across Northwestern Ontario, and look ahead. From early grassroots beginnings to a modern, provincially supported children’s treatment centre, our purpose has stayed the same: enriching lives through specialized, client- and family-centred care.

Honour the people who built this Centre: families, staff, partners, volunteers, donors, and community champions


Celebrate progress in how children and youth are supported, with care that is more inclusive, accessible, and family-centred


Look forward as we shape the next chapter through our new strategic plan
