To mark the beginning of National Caregiver Month, the Canadian Centre for Caregiving Excellence (CCCE) will be releasing a detailed report on the state of care in Canada. The report –  Caring in Canada: Survey insights from caregivers and care providers across Canada – will feature new data collected in CCCE’s National Caregiving Survey completed by over 3,000 caregivers and care providers across the country.

Who cares in Canada and what are the biggest challenges faced by caregivers and care providers from coast-to-coast-to-coast? Join us either in person or online to dive into the data with sector leaders and caregivers and care providers.

 

Report highlights:

  • Impacts of care on working caregivers
  • The cost of caring
  • Experiences of underserved communities, including racialized caregivers, Indigenous caregivers, LGBTQ+, young caregivers and siblings
  • Policy solutions to build a better future of care
