2020 CDH Conference in Toronto, Ontario

We are sad to report that we must postpone the 2020 CDH International Conference in Toronto in July.

Given the spread of COVID-19, our patients with with weaker lungs, families in the United States under financial stress, the current border closing and a multitude of variables no one can currently answer during this crisis, the Executive Board of Directors voted this week that the responsible thing to do is to postpone the conference until 2021.

We will post a date for 2021 as soon as we have one. We will continue to with Sick Kids to pull the event together next summer.   We plan on celebrating our 25th until then!

We apologize for any inconvenience and look forward to seeing you all next year!

July 22-25 in Toronto, Ontario Canada.

SAVE THE DATE and grab your passports!

The 2020 CDH Conference and CDHi 25th Anniversary will be held in Toronto, Ontario, Canada just over the border to bring all our North American families together for the biggest CDH event ever!
