About Us
We prescribe Joy through programs that create immediate and measurable improvement to the mental and emotional wellness of young patients.
JoyRx Heals
At Children’s Cancer Association (CCA), we know it takes more than medicine to treat cancer and serious illness. When a child is facing life’s most challenging moments, they also need emotional healing.
For 25 years, we’ve been doing just that—delivering programs to help young patients find their Joy—one song, one friendship, one breath of ocean air at a time. Because when a child experiences Joy, their emotional well-being is positively impacted.
Simply put: Joy makes sick kids feel better.
The Business of Joy
For more than two decades, CCA has earned accolades for fiscal discipline and is honored to be the recipient of the Better Business Bureau’s (BBB) Torch Award as Oregon’s 2019 Charity of the Year. The BBB Torch Awards shine the spotlight across the nation on businesses and nonprofits that demonstrate excellence in dedication to integrity and ethical business practices.
