Advance Care Planning Workshop

Date: April 18, 2026
Time: 10:00AM to 1:00PM Location: Rollo

Suggested donation: $40 All materials provided.

National Advance Care Planning Day in Canada is April 16. Have you created your ACP yet?

An advance care plan is a documented, personal strategy outlining your healthcare preferences, values, and goals for future care in case you cannot speak for yourself due to sudden illness or incapacity. It involves identifying a substitute decision-maker and sharing your wishes with loved ones and professionals to ensure they are respected.

Join us for an interactive presentation on how to create your own ACP and some practical help on putting together your own draft in a supportive environment.
