Community Engagement
Connecting with our communities of care providers, researchers and patients.
The APC is committed to enhancing community awareness of amyloidosis, promoting research opportunities, and improving patient and family supports. Our diverse community of clinicians, researchers, educators, patients and families benefit from our events, resources, and opportunities to connect and share information. We also support engagement between clinicians caring for amyloidosis patients and seek to foster collaboration in research and other initiatives through a network of colleagues in Canada and around the world.

On March 15th, 2023, the Calgary Tower was lit red in recognition of 'Light the Night for Amyloidosis', an event organized by the Amyloidosis Foundation to raise awareness around the world for amyloidosis.
