Kidney Foundation of Canada

A charitable organization that lives its values of accountability, collaboration, compassion, integrity, resiliency and respect, ALS Society of Canada works with the ALS community to improve the lives of people affected by amyotrophic lateral sclerosis through support, advocacy and investment in research for a future without ALS. Fully funded by donors, we were fortunate to benefit from the generosity of Canadians during the Ice Bucket Challenge of 2014, and are now focused on implementing our 2018 to 2023 strategic plan in support of the following long-term impacts: - people affected by ALS receive the best possible standard of care; - more treatments are available to improve quality of life and extend lifespan; and - people are empowered to make informed decisions about ALS. Our world is challenging. The people we serve are dealing with a devastating illness. But in the midst of it, their resiliency and spirit is remarkable and moving. You will be touched by the community and will find a way to naturally and effectively engage.

Founded 30 years ago, PCMH’s commitment to support, education, and empowerment has guided the organization’s work and dedication to families. Through meaningful engagement and family-centred care, PCMH has empowered families so their voices are heard and recognized as experts. In 2020, PCMH became a program of Children’s Mental Health Ontario. By working together, we can advance family partnerships, family engagement and family peer support in child and youth mental health. We believe children, youth and their families suffering from mental health challenges deserve extreme respect and validation. We are dedicated to improving the lives of these families through support, education and empowerment.

The Canadian Frailty Network (CFN) is Canada’s sole network devoted to changing behaviours that help slow down, avoid or mitigate the risks of frailty in older adults. It also improves care for older Canadians living with frailty by supporting their families and caregivers.
