As COVID-19 vaccine rollout continues across the country, the need to address concerns and barriers to vaccination has never been more important. In partnership with the Eastern Ontario Health Unit, Families Canada is working to build the capacity of the family support sector to increase vaccine confidence among disadvantaged and marginalized populations. They invite you to join two online consultations for service providers to engage with your peers and share your experiences in their popular Let’s Talk series.
