Our 2025–26 Infant RSV Campaign received two honours in the 2026 IABC Canada Silver Leaf Awards!

🏆 Award of Merit — Nonprofit Sector Communication
🏆 Award of Merit — Digital Communication

At Praxus, we use marketing as a health intervention. We build campaigns around insights, combining clear, accessible health information with strategies that support informed decisions and drive behaviour change.

This campaign brought that approach to life through:

• Information hubs, webinars, and resources for families and healthcare providers.
• National PR and advertising to raise awareness.
• A Toronto catch-up clinic and advocacy for equitable access to RSV protection.

Congratulations to Arpita Sarker, Caitlin Ford, Danielle Mossfeldt, Jon Mudry, Tessa Griffin, and Theresa Tang! 👏 And a huge thank you to our patient and physician collaborators, and all our partners, for making this campaign possible.

The work continues! We used insights from 2025–26 to strengthen our 2026–27 campaign. Explore and share our updated RSV hubs:

And that’s a wrap on yet another webinar this month!

We recently hosted Workplace Health & Wellness: Practical Strategies for Employee Health Prevention, exploring how employers can support employee health through prevention.

The session highlighted the role of adult immunization in workplace wellness and practical strategies to promote vaccine awareness and uptake among employees.

A shoutout to our host, Dr. Shelita Dattani, PharmD, executive chair of the Adult Vaccine Alliance, for sharing her insights and practical expertise. And a big thank you to everyone who joined the conversation.

It's a privilege to be at the table discussing meaningful ways we can accelerate elimination across Canada.

This month, our teammate Madison Fullerton made her way to Montreal to share valuable insights on the importance of community-informed approaches to equitable cervical cancer screening at the ACCESS North America Workshop: Accelerating Cervical Cancer Elimination Shaped by the Latest Evidence and a Health Systems Perspective.

The workshop brought together leaders from across Canada and the United States to explore how we can accelerate cervical cancer elimination through vaccination, screening and follow-up care.

At Praxus, we understand that availability does not equal access. Equitable screening requires us to understand the barriers communities face and develop approaches that reflect their needs and lived experiences. Listening to communities is essential to building more equitable health systems and advancing our collective efforts to advance cervical cancer elimination.

And that’s a wrap on our National Infant RSV Town Hall: Evidence to Practice! 👶👏

More than 100 healthcare providers from coast to coast joined us live for an important conversation on translating evidence into practice to strengthen infant RSV protection across Canada.

We’re grateful to Dr. Shazma Mithani for sharing the latest clinical evidence, NACI recommendations, and practical approaches to addressing vaccine hesitancy in routine prenatal and postnatal care.

It's RSV Awareness week and we’ve launched a national campaign to help families across Canada learn more about infant RSV and navigate options for protection. 👶

As part of the campaign, we created two information hubs:

✅ Parent information hub: Clear, accessible information to help families understand infant RSV and explore protection options in their province.

✅ Provider information hub: Information and provincial resources to help healthcare providers navigate infant RSV protection programs and support families.

A big thank you to Dr. Shazma Mithani for supporting the campaign and helping to bring this important information to more families!

Explore and share the hubs:

➡️ For providers: praxushealth.ca/rsv-provider

Grateful to be among so many action-driven people in the healthcare space. 💡

Our founder, Theresa Tang, and teammate Sandra Stabel joined the Alberta College of Family Physicians’ Innovation Forum to showcase Praxus Health’s work on our InnovateHealth training program. Praxus Health also participated for a second year in a row as an innovation judge.

Alberta primary care is primed for innovation. The forum brought together people who aren’t just talking about the future of healthcare, but actively working to shape it. From sharing ideas to championing new approaches. Together we learned from others pushing the boundaries of what’s possible.

Here’s to more collaboration, fresh thinking and turning bold ideas into better health outcomes. 🚀

Everyone deserves clear, trusted, and inclusive health information. 💬

This HPV Awareness Week, we’re supporting Science Up First's 'Together Against Misinformation Day' by highlighting the importance of reliable information about HPV.

One of the biggest misconceptions we hear about HPV is that it only affects women. In fact, HPV can affect people of all genders.

We’ve created HPV resources for a wide range of audiences across Canada, including patients, healthcare providers, and 2SLGBTQI+ communities.

We work with partners, like the Urban Public Health Network (UPHN), to co-create resources and help ensure HPV messaging across Canada is consistent, accessible, and relevant to the communities it reaches.

Together, we can counter misinformation and support informed health decisions!
