What We Are All About
Compassionate Thunder Bay is a small community led group that is attempting to bring the Compassionate Communities movement to Thunder Bay.
Currently, we are made up of mostly interested health-care professionals, passionate community members and relevant organizations.
Compassionate communities is about everyday citizens, businesses, and organizations getting involved and supporting people with end-of-life events related to aging, dying, grieving, and caregiving. Every community member acts as the agents of change by encouraging their community to advocate, and provide assistance and practical support within their community.
What is Compassionate Communities?
Compassionate Communities is a social movement that aims to normalize and increase community support for those experiencing death, dying, loss, or those caregiving.
