CAMPP works with community partners to deliver end-of-life palliative care to some of Calgary's most vulnerable people. Their team helps people manage pain and navigate the health care system, giving them a voice in what the end of their life looks like, and ensuring that all Calgarians are able to receive equitable access to the palliative care that they deserve.

There is no “right way” to die. But when we think about the end of our days, we hope it will be peaceful – perhaps surrounded by loved ones, asleep in our own bed.  

For those without a home, the end of their days may come without a single friend or relative, with no formal gathering to commemorate their lives and no tombstone to mark their final resting place.  

That is why the services provided by Calgary Allied Mobile Palliative Program (CAMPP) are vitally important to our community. They provide supports that allow individuals experiencing homelessness to die with dignity. 

Each year, the CAMPP team joins the Longest Night of the Year to share heartfelt memories and to continue to raise awareness of the need to provide care, compassion, and dignity for those experiencing homelessness throughout—and at the end of—their lives.
