Protecting Black Health: Kidney Disease Prevention and Early Detection

Did you know Black Canadians are more likely to develop kidney disease—but many don’t know it until it’s serious?

Kidney disease often has no symptoms until it reaches a later stage. That’s why awareness, regular checkups, and understanding your risk are so important. High blood pressure, diabetes, and even conditions like sickle cell or lupus can increase your risk—but there are ways to protect your health.

Join us for this free, community-focused webinar led by Black health professionals and people living with kidney disease. You’ll learn valuable information about why kidney function matters, how to maintain it, and what to ask when talking to a health care provider about your kidney health.

• Live Q&A with Black health experts
• Free to attend
• Culturally relevant info

This webinar series is a collaboration between Black Health Alliance, The Kidney Foundation of Canada, and the Can-SOLVE CKD Network — a team of community members and researchers working to improve kidney health and build a more equitable health system for Black Canadians.
