As we approach the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation and Orange Shirt Day, we recognize that commemorative activities may cause distress for First Nations and Indian Residential School Survivors. Remember that you're not alone in this journey. If you or someone you know needs support, there are resources available.

As we prepare for the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, please take some time to learn more about the history of Residential Schools in Canada and the continued impacts on Indigenous peoples and communities. Below is some information on Phyllis Webstad's story and the creation of Orange Shirt Day.

How can I become the Power of Attorney for the person I care for? What is a substitute decision maker?

We hear questions like this from caregivers all the time.

As a caregiver you’re often expected to be an expert on so many things, and you’ve probably had to make sense of confusing legal conversations more than once.

Let’s clear things up.

Kate Dewhirst, a lawyer and educator, is joining us for a webinar on September 11 to break down the complex legal terms & topics that affect caregivers, including:

👉 Scenarios where you may need to know about Power of Attorney, consent, capacity, privacy, and substitute decision-makers (and how these apply to your caregiving role).

👉 How to effectively explain legal situations to the person you care for, ensuring that information is communicated clearly.

👉 Practical tips and takeaways to enhance your understanding.
