As Brain Health Awareness Month wraps up, our dedication to brain health remains stronger than ever. CABHI, powered by @Baycrest, is thrilled to announce $2.6M CAD in funding for 23 projects through our Ignite program—driving innovation and impact in this vital area.
CABHI’s Ignite program supports early-stage Canadian innovators (including researchers, point-of-care staff, and companies) so they can develop, test, and validate their solutions and enhance the lives of older persons, people living with dementia, and their caregivers.
Ignite program participants are seeking CABHI's guidance and expertise in the aging and brain health sector to advance solutions spanning six Innovation Themes:
🏠 Aging at Home
💙 Caregiver Support
↗️ Care Coordination and Navigation
🧠 Cognitive and Mental Health
💰 Financial Health and Wellness
👵 Women's Brain Health + FemTech
Congratulations to all the finalists, and thank you to the @ONtrainandstudy and the @PHAC_GC for their generous support in advancing innovation and helping create a better quality of life for older persons.

If you have COPD, you may experience self-blame, guilt and shame because of the persisting stigma associated with COPD. People with COPD deserve to live freely without stigma or guilt, and to have a good quality of life. Share the COPD Patient Charter: copdcanada.info/67.html
