Through research, education, service, and awareness programs, the Canadian Pain Coalition works to support those living with chronic pain and to improve the quality of life for those affected by this disease. We represent the interests of the almost six million Canadians living with chronic pain to government, non-government associations, business and the public.

Canadian Pain Coalition staff and volunteers are available across the country to answer specific questions about chronic pain as well as to provide information, support, referrals if required and to identify actions other pain sufferers can take to spread the word about this disease.

We work with various levels of government and policy-makers to promote recognition of chronic pain as a significant public health issues in Canada today, and take action to address it.

We encourage you to write letters to your local government official (click here to access your local reps contact information) and we continue to offer support as needed for local awareness initiatives in your community.
