In this week's episode of Action on Pain, the hosts sit down with Dr. Hance Clarke and Dr. Tania Di Renna to discuss the Canadian Pain Society’s (CPS) new strategic plan and its alignment with Health Canada’s An Action Plan for Pain in Canada. They highlight CPS’s commitment to improving pain management, advancing research, and fostering education and engagement with people living with pain. The conversation explores CPS’s inclusive approach, measurable goals, and vision for global leadership in pain care. Listeners gain insight into upcoming initiatives, including the 2026 Annual Scientific Meeting, and are encouraged to stay connected for updates and resources.
Please note that there were a number of acronyms used during the course of this interview and we thought it would be helpful to the listeners include an explanation for each of these:
CPS: Canadian Pain Society
PWLE: People with Lived Experience
CPN: Chronic Pain Network
CPCoE: Chronic Pain Centre of Excellence for Canadian Veterans
SKIP: Solutions for Kids in Pain
CIHR: Canadian Institutes of Health Research
