CALM (Managing Cancer And Living Meaningfully), is a brief, semi-structured, evidence-based, psychotherapeutic intervention for advanced cancer patients and their primary caregivers. It is designed to help people with metastatic cancer and their caregivers manage the practical and profound problems associated with advanced disease. The primary goals of CALM are reducing and preventing psychological distress.
The CALM Training Program is our specialized program to teach and supervise health-care professionals in the provision of CALM.
The next CALM Advanced Workshop will be held in Toronto May 29-31, 2016. Funding is available on competitive basis.
