About Us
SCAPHON is the local chapter of APHON for the Southern California area extending from San Diego to Santa Barbara. Because California has many pediatric institutions that are dedicated to serving children and young adults with cancer and blood disorders, our chapter has continued to grow and thrive each year. From its humble beginnings in 1984, when 4 dedicated and passionate pediatric hematology/oncology nurses established the first Southern California chapter through today, SCAPHON’s commitment to educating and supporting pediatric hematology/oncology nurses in Southern California is stronger then ever.
