Volunteer Opportunities

 

  • Are you looking for a meaningful volunteer opportunity?
  • Do you have recent experience with the cancer system as a screening participant, a patient or a caregiver to a family member or friend?
  • Are you willing to share your perspective to make an impact on the healthcare system for all Ontarians?

If you answered “yes” to the questions above, consider volunteering with us as an advisor.

During a time when I was giving up, being a Patient and Family Advisor restored my faith in the healthcare system. Working together and listening to each other helps make the changes that will benefit everyone. It is the future of healthcare.
