Palliative and end-of-life care grant fund

We recognize that access to appropriate and timely palliative and end-of-life care is important. This is why the Alberta government committed $20 million for palliative and end-of-life care initiatives over a 4-year period to address these priorities:

• raise public awareness of palliative care and how and when to access it
• develop effective caregiver supports to support Albertans in their home and community
• establish and implement palliative care education, training, and standards for health professionals
• continue to shift from hospital to community-based home and hospice care

The Government of Alberta has allocated $11 million in one-time grant funding through the palliative and end-of-life care grant fund. This funding is time-limited with successful applicants having until March 31, 2024, to complete their grant activities.

Funding will be allocated accordingly:

• earlier access: $1 million to $2 million
• education and training or community supports and services: $7 million to $8 million
• research and innovation: $1 million to $2 million
