About Camp Okizu
For 42 years, Camp Okizu has been a beacon of hope and support for families who have experienced a child's cancer diagnosis. Camp Okizu creates a second family and a home away from home for thousands of patients, siblings and parents. In 2023, the Camp will offer seven weekend family camp sessions, two week-long sessions of sleep away camp for pediatric oncology patients, three-week long sessions for their siblings, two Teens-N-Twenties weekends for kiddos age 18 -25, and two Bereaved Teen sessions for kiddos 13 – 25. These programs will be held at a variety of camp sites throughout Northern California.
Camp Okizu is a safe space for families to come together and find strength and hope in their darkest days. Through the years, this camp has offered a refuge and community for those who have experienced the devastating diagnosis of a child's cancer. With an abundance of sessions and activities, Camp Okizu is sure to provide an enriching and supportive experience for everyone involved.
