Join the Canadian Paediatric Society
The CPS is the professional home of almost 4000 paediatric health care providers: paediatricians, paediatric subspecialists, paediatric residents, nurses, physicians, students and others.
The strength of our membership allows the CPS to influence public policy and help health professionals, parents and others to make the best decisions about the health of Canada’s children and youth.
