Comfort Bags

For several years a vital part of our mission is to provide Comfort Bags to meet the need of the Princess Margaret Cancer Center’s Adolescent and Young Adult program (AYA).

When a young adult receives a cancer diagnosis, it’s a shock. And often, they enter treatment with nothing. Comfort Bags are designed in consultation with oncological experts to provide these young adults with items to make their treatment that much less of a burden.

Today our Comfort Bag program meets even more needs with the additions of Sunnybrook Hospital and the Hospital for Sick Children.

Mindfulness Based Art Therapy

We also partner with the AYA at PMH to support delivery of Mindfulness Based Art Therapy.  This unique program combines mindfulness practices and the creative process in a group session with the support of a certified art therapist.

The program aspires to facilitate emotional healing and wellness informed by humanistic principals of empathy, compassion and unconditional positive regard.

Participants build upon existing tools in order to promote well-being and self-reliance to encourage creative exploration and expression of the inner dialogue that inspires new and hopeful perspectives. Sessions though in a group format are person- centered and individualized to meet the unique needs of each client.
