Hospice Yukon Society<\/strong> has been supporting Yukoners through grief and end-of-life since 1989. We provide programs\u00a0and services\u00a0to help you to better understand the profound journey of living, dying and grieving. And we help you to better support yourself and others.<\/p>\n

Our dedicated team of staff and volunteers offer support to dying and grieving clients at the Continuing Care Facilities in Whitehorse, the Whitehorse General Hospital, in private homes, and in our downtown office space. We also offer online services and programming for those living in rural Yukon communities.<\/p>\n

Our vision: Hospice Yukon inspires a compassionate community through support and education for Yukoners experiencing death and grief.<\/i><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
