Connecting for Caring: Courage to Care Book Launch and Screenings

Join a community gathering to honour and reflect on the meaning of caring as a shared human experience. The afternoon features an interactive screening of four short documentaries exploring the courage to let go of control and remain present in difficult moments. Hosted by Mike Lang, the session includes live conversations with featured participants and a nursing expert, concluding with a guided mindfulness meditation led by Dr. Linda Carlson. Following the screening, the event transitions into a broader discussion inspired by the book Courage to Care: Ripples of Love in Action. This part of the program focuses on how caring shapes our communities, featuring stories, creative expression, and conversation about strengthening our collective capacity to support one another. It is an invitation to listen, reflect, and imagine what becomes possible when care is recognized and valued.
