This no cost, two-day, in-person training follows the Canadian Hospice Palliative Care Association Training Program which is recognized across Canada. It will give volunteers, caregivers and interested community members the confidence to provide quality support services in any setting, whether that is in hospice, care centres or a private home.

Discover healing through the lens of your own story.

No photography experience is needed—just a willingness to share and reflect. Participants will capture images that express their grief journey and come together in supportive group sessions to find meaning, connection, and hope. This creative program offers a safe, compassionate space to honor loved ones and witness the strength found in shared experiences. Join us and let your photos speak when words fall short.
