Hospice Toronto is proud to offer Creating Caring Communities (CCC) as one of our key programs supporting people living with life-threatening illnesses.

CCC works closely with residents and local agencies in St. James Town to ensure individuals can receive compassionate, culturally sensitive support right at home. By training and connecting community members, this program helps neighbours care for one another, navigate the health care system, and access hospice palliative care services when they need them most.

Since 2008, CCC has grown through strong community leadership and word-of-mouth connections. With funding from the Government of Canada, this model is now expanding to more regions across Ontario and Nova Scotia, helping even more communities build resilience and support their most vulnerable members.

Together, we’re creating stronger, healthier, and more caring neighbourhoods. 💙

Today is National Grief and Bereavement Day, recognized each year on the third Tuesday of November. Hospice Toronto, alongside Canadian Hospice Palliative Care AssociationCare, is honouring this day by raising awareness about grief and the importance of supporting those who are experiencing it.

Grief touches every one of us. Yet many people feel unprepared for how long it lasts, how deeply it affects them, or how hard it can be to talk about. Even with the best intentions, loved ones may not know how to offer support — leaving many people feeling alone or misunderstood.

This year, we’re joining the call to help close Canada’s grief literacy gap. When we learn how to talk about grief with compassion and understanding, we make space for healing.

Hospice Toronto is here to help. Our Bereavement Support Program provides a caring, compassionate space for family and friends to talk openly about their feelings and experiences. We offer:

• Short-term one-on-one sessions with a Client Services Coordinator
• Peer-based Bereavement Support Groups
• Volunteer support calls and visits
• Referrals to community bereavement services when needed

Our trained volunteers and staff help people navigate the early stages of grief, share memories and emotions, and find support in a safe, understanding environment.

Let’s work together to ensure no one has to navigate loss on their own. 💙
