Ontario Black Health & Wellbeing Strategy

Ontario Black Health & Wellbeing Strategy

Our Challenge:

Black communities in Canada face disproportionately poor outcomes across the social determinants of health and indicators of wellbeing.

Our Approach:

Build a targeted strategy that centres the most vulnerable in our communities facing multiple barriers: youth living in poverty, children and youth in care, people living with disabilities, LGBTQ+, trans and gender nonconforming youth, as well as older adult and aging populations.

Our Impact:

Through an iterative action plan that is measurable, multi-generational, and focused on building community connectedness, we will affect legislative and public policy change at multiple levels, and drive transformative community based action to improve the health and wellbeing of Black communities in Ontario.
