Spiritual Health Awareness Week
Spiritual Health Awareness Week (SHAW) is a national Canadian initiative that promotes the importance of spiritual well‑being as part of whole‑person health. The 2026 theme is “Spiritual Health Matters”. SHAW is led by the Canadian Association for Spiritual Care (CASC) / Association Canadienne de Soins Spirituels (ACSS) and is dedicated to raising awareness of the role of meaning, purpose, hope, connection, and belonging in supporting health and helping people navigate life’s challenges. It encourages education, reflection, conversation, and community engagement to make spiritual health visible in workplaces, health care, schools, and communities.
