(A Unit of Indian Cancer Society)
Resource Centre
At CanKids, we have set ourselves the goal to create an Information and Resource Centre in our own country. We aim to build a library of books and articles from all over the world, including our own. We aim to translate books available both in our own country and internationally, into Hindi, and make them available to other organizations to translate into their own languages/vernaculars.

We encourage parents, families and the children themselves to write about their own experiences and aspirations which we will get printed and circulated.

It is our aim to become the National Information and Resource Centre for all aspects of Childhood Cancer - for professionals, support services, parents and families and importantly for the children and adolescents themselves.
What does the Centre Contain? The resource centre consists of:
