Pain Canada’s public awareness and advocacy campaigns mobilize people with pain, organizations and institutions across Canada to draw attention to chronic pain and advocate for action to make pain a priority. Please join us to make your voice heard and drive action on pain in Canada.

Since we began in the summer of 2021, more than 500 people and organizations have participated in our campaigns, including more than 40 official campaign partner organizations, ranging from health associations, non-profits, unions, Indigenous organizations, and hospitals, and our messages calling for action on pain have received more than nine million impressions and reached nearly three million Canadians.
