We recently received additional funds to support conference attendance and travel for nurses, healthcare providers and community members.
Some funds, specifically those generously donated by the Ontario Ministry of Health AIDS Bureau, cover the conference fees and travel costs for Ontario CANAC nurse members.
The team coordinating the award will distribute the funds according to role, geographic location and available resources. If you are interested in receiving this funding, please click the link below and apply for a conference support/travel scholarship!
