Canuck Place Children’s Hospice

Canuck Place Children’s Hospice opened in November 1995, to become North America’s first free-standing children’s hospice. Today we have two provincial locations in Vancouver and Abbotsford to deliver care which includes medical respite, pain/symptom management, art, music and recreation therapy, end of life care, grief, loss and bereavement counselling. All at no cost to families.

Recognized internationally as leaders in the field of pediatric palliative care, the need for our services has grown exponentially. Thanks to the dedication of our staff, volunteers, and our extended team of corporate, community and government partners, we are able to make a difference in the lives of more children and families in need.

  • Culture & Purpose

  • Comment from the judges

    With an unbeatable purpose like Canuck’s it’s no wonder the people who choose to work there see it as a worthwhile career. It’s clear the leadership takes the wellbeing of their staff very seriously as this type of work requires ample resources for mental health, psychological safety and a high-trust work environment. Very impressed and inspired.
