30,000 babies are born prematurely in Canada every year and 1 in 10 babies worldwide are born too soon. Join CANN in November in observing World Prematurity Day to raise awareness of the challenges and long-term impact of preterm birth globally. Throughout the month of November, we also encourage you to share your stories, plan or participate in an activity, or simply wear purple to show your support and compassion for the families of premature babies in Canada and around the world.

CANN is once again proud to collaborate with the Canadian Premature Babies Foundation (CPBF) for the fall series of their live webinars – Preemie Chats. Join the CPBF live every Friday at 1 pm ET to chat with experts, researchers and parents from all over the world on Facebook or YouTube or Twitter. Missed the last Preemie Chat?
