How we can help

Please check our individual program pages for any service changes due to COVID-19.

If you have stopped working because of COVID-19, the Canada’s COVID-19 Economic Response Plan may provide you with temporary income support. You can also find financial support by regions that you may qualify for.

We offer a support system for people with cancer and their family, friends and caregivers. Our programs and services help answer your questions about cancer, manage life with cancer, find community and connection, and build wellness and resilience. Many of our programs are available in different languages.
