As you know, the Canadian Spine Society, in conjunction with the Rick Hansen Institute, is reconstructing the National Spine Registry, which has come to be known as the Canadian Spine Outcomes and Research Network – CSORN. This is an immense task and one that will require significant monetary resources. The Canadian Spine Research & Education Fund has accepted the essential role of funding this project. To honour this commitment we require help from those most intimately involved with the provision of spinal treatment.

Please plan to make a personal annual donation and consider canvassing your patients and colleagues to join your charitable efforts. Promotional materials (patient solicitation letters, brochures, etc) are available through the CSREF office; contact us today.
