Support for Injured Workers in Thunder Bay

Thunder Bay & District Injured Workers Support Group


Advocacy, peer support, and education for injured workers and their families across Northwestern Ontario.

Who We Are

We are a volunteer-run, non-profit organization supporting workers and families affected by workplace injury, illness, or death.

Why We Exist

Many injured workers face denied WSIB claims, long appeal delays, poverty, and isolation. We help people understand their rights, navigate the system, and stay connected to a community that believes them.

How We Support

  • Peer support rooted in lived experience
  • Advocacy for fair and humane workers’ compensation
  • Education and outreach for workers and communities
