PAC is a member of the Hospice Association of Ontario, The Toronto Palliative Care Network, Ontario Multi-faith Council, and an Associate member of the Canadian AIDS Society and Ontario AIDS Network.

PAC’s programs are generously supported by the Ministry of Health, numerous foundations and organizations, businesses, service clubs, churches and individuals who help to meet current needs and allow for expansion as the demand for hospice services continues to increase.

PAC is in the process of expanding its current hospice programs to children and families by opening a Children’s home. This home will be a safe, homelike residence with specialized pediatric nursing and other related professional staff offering care to 10 children. The medical care floor will support up to 6 children who are living with a progressive life threatening illness and the non medical floor will support 4 children whose primary caregiver is seriously ill and requires a break from care giving to convalesce or receive much needed medical treatment.
