CANO/ACIO 2017-2021 Strategic Plan
We are excited to share CANO/ACIO’s Strategic Plan for 2017-21. As a national member driven organization that supports Canadian nurses to deliver excellence in oncology nursing practice, education, research and leadership, every three to five years, CANO/ACIO undertakes the work required to create a new strategic plan. This ensures the actions of the organization are in step with current issues in health care, are informed by the voices of our members and remain aligned with our Vision and Mission.

CANO/ACIO also aims to develop leadership capacity within CANO/ACIO members, empowering them to advance oncology nursing practice and transform cancer care environments. The goals for this strategic priority are listed in the Strategic Plan Publication: [ENG] [FRE]
