Horizons of Hope – A Palliative Care Approach is a program developed by the Canadian Conference of Catholic Bishops (CCCB). This invitation aims to introduce the CCCB’s Horizons of Hope modules to parishes that haven’t yet had the opportunity to experience them. The goal is to promote understanding and implementation of a palliative care approach, ensuring vulnerable individuals living with life-threatening illness receive the best possible support and comfort.

A hybrid approach will be used originating from St. John Fisher Parish in Brampton, ON featuring four experienced presenters. This Zoom-friendly format allows parishes to gather in a hall and participate virtually with an added benefit of shared learning and gathering in community.
