Strategy & Performance

SickKids is dedicated to improving health outcomes for children and their families in a compassionate and innovative, responsible and efficient manner.

Caring for children is at the heart of everything we do. As a world leader in children’s health care, we embrace the transparency and accountability that comes with leadership. We also believe that healthy patients need a healthy planet, so over the years we have made a serious commitment to decreasing our energy consumption, waste production, and reducing our carbon footprint.
