Client and Family Advisors

Calvin’s lung disabilities have led him to be actively involved as a patient partner in the health-care system. His motto? "Communicate and educate!"

Calvin started Every Breath Counts, a monthly peer group that provides people with lived experience of lung disease with guidance in navigating the health system. For more than a decade he has been involved with various patient and care advisory groups, including with St. Joseph Care Group, Health Quality Ontario, The Toronto General Hospital, The University Health Network, the Ontario government, the International Foundation for Integrated Care (Ireland) Ireland and CAG. Calvin is looking forward to being a part of VON's digital health transformation.
