Mandate

Board of Directors of the Sudbury Hospice

The Sudbury Hospice is governed by a Board of Directors of 12 members.  The Board is a bilingual governing body with an overall membership and composition that reflects its expanded role and mandate within the community.

A steering committee of the Maison La Paix (MLP) Board, comprised of representations from MLP and other hospice palliative care organizations, led the development of the project. Its mandate was to develop policies and procedures, building design, partnership agreements, capital funding requests, a communication and lobbying strategy and a governance model for the future community residential hospice.  With most of the work achieved, the steering committee was dissolved in early 2008 and the hospice project is now led by the Board of the Sudbury Hospice.The official name of the organization was changed to Maison de soins palliatifs de Sudbury Hospice.
