Championing Change for Rural Health Care – Addressing the Rural Physician Shortage
The SRPC is excited to share an important advocacy campaign that needs your support to make a real impact.
A crisis is unfolding in Canada’s rural, remote, and Indigenous communities. The physician shortage is leaving families without essential care, often forcing them to travel long distances for medical attention—or go without.
Championing Change for Rural Health is a national advocacy campaign committed to raising awareness, mobilizing change, and equipping physicians, healthcare workers, and patients with the tools to make a difference.
The campaign website offers a variety of resources to help you get involved, including:
- Letter Templates: Quickly personalize and send letters to politicians and healthcare leaders, advocating for meaningful change.
- Social Media Images: Amplify the message by sharing ready-made graphics and posts.
- Flyers: Circulate materials within your networks to build broader awareness and support.
Whether you’re a physician, healthcare worker, or community member, your voice matters. Your support can help drive meaningful change and improve access to care in rural, remote, and Indigenous communities.
