To us at Home Hospice Association, one aspect of celebrating Pride Month means advocating for affirming care for people of all ages, in every care setting.

Join us for the Still Me Workshop on June 25th, 2026, from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. at Smith's Funeral Home Stoney Creek Chapel, 454 Hwy 8, Stoney Creek, ON L8E 5Z7, Canada. More details can be found on our website.

This workshop is designed for family members (biological or chosen), friends, front line workers, caregivers, and informal support persons who want to better understand how they can advocate for the identity, safety, and dignity of someone they care about. Community members are also always welcome!

Participants will learn:
• What re-closeting is and why it occurs
• How to recognize signs that someone may be withdrawing or concealing their identity
• Practical advocacy strategies for communicating with care providers and organizations
• Ways to create safer, more affirming care experiences across a variety of settings
• Tools and resources that support planning, inclusion, and belonging
