An opportunity for people who live in the Pacific Northwest of BC who struggle with persistent pain to meet regularly and build a community of support while learning about pain, pain management and coping strategies.

Making Sense of Pain is a self-management program designed for people with pain who experience marginalization and face barriers to accessing care.

The Making Sense of Pain program is held over a span of nine to ten weeks and is led by a trained facilitator. Facilitators provide participants with opportunities to learn about pain, the various factors that can cause or make pain worse, and simple strategies that can help participants better manage pain in everyday life. Attendance at all sessions is encouraged, but not required.
This 10 week program will be offered via Zoom once a week for two hours starting in January 2024.
Brought to you by the Pacific Northwest Division of Family Practice & Pain BC
