Most people have never heard of kidney disease until it affects them, or someone they care about.
Though more than 51,000 Canadians are currently being treated for kidney failure, finding information about the treatments, options and support available can be difficult.
We can help kidney patients locate the information and resources they need, to learn more about how they can manage kidney disease, and the impact it has on their lives.
Peer Support
Being diagnosed with a chronic illness is life-changing and can happen with little or no warning. We’re here to provide emotional support and resources to help people live well with kidney disease.
The Kidney Foundation is at the centre of a comprehensive network of national and regional specialized websites, offering an extensive range of valuable resources for the kidney community.
