30,000 babies are born prematurely in Canada every year and 1 in 10 babies worldwide are born too soon. Join CANN in November in observing World Prematurity Day to raise awareness of the challenges and long-term impact of preterm birth globally. Throughout the month of November, we also encourage you to share your stories, plan or participate in an activity, or simply wear purple to show your support and compassion for the families of premature babies in Canada and around the world.
