The Canadian Mental Health Association, Manitoba and Winnipeg is part of a nation-wide, charitable organization that promotes the mental health of all and supports the resilience and recovery of people experiencing mental illness.

ImmUnity Canada has been a registered charity (BN#:  816034276RR0001) since 1997, and its staff and volunteers are dedicated to empowering people with Primary Immunodeficiency (PI) to live well through education, advocacy and building community.

There are approximately 500 known PIs, which are genetic disorders where part of the immune system is either missing, or not functioning properly.  This leaves people prone to infections, and fighting them off is much harder.  Many people with PI also have a predisposition towards co-existent auto-immune disorders, where the immune system targets healthy tissue, leading to inflammation and further ill-health.

Our volunteers have varied roles, including: board members, medical advisory committees, support group facilitators, Facebook moderators, patient story-tellers, and of course, our much valued event volunteers.
