The Young Caregiver Council of Canada is hosting two webinars to introduce the launch of our new website, youngcaregivercouncil.ca. Our site features the first National Support List for young carers, a Young Carer Library with multimedia resources, and a blog that features young carers’ stories and how you can join our movement to support young carers across Canada.
Are you a young person between 14 and 30 years who supports a family member or close friend that experiences challenges?
OR
A professional that supports young people and families?
Register for one of our Care Connects Us Webinars in January 2026.
Hosted by the Young Caregiver Council of Canada, in collaboration with the Canadian Centre for Caregiving Excellence and the Young Caregivers Association.
Webinar 1
Are you a young person between the ages of 14–30?
If you support someone in your family or community due to illness, disability, substance use, or aging needs—this space is for you.
Join our Care Connects Us Webinar on January 22 at 7pm EST to hear real stories, learn about support and resources, and connect with other young carers across Canada.
Friends and family are welcome.
Webinar 2
Professionals who work with young people and families—this conversation is for you.
Almost 20% of young people across Canada support a family member and/or close friend living young people who support a family member/friend living with chronic illness, disability, mental health challenge, substance use, parental absence, aging needs, and/or other social or cultural factors (e.g., language). However, the majority of these young carers are left to navigate their care roles without recognition or support.
Join us on January 29 at 1pm EST for the Care Connects Us Webinar to learn about the Young Caregiver Council of Canada and explore how we can collectively better support young carers across Canada.
