Community Health Board members are a committed group of volunteers working together, under a legislated mandate, to improve the health of the community.
CHB members help create a Healthy Community by:
- Learning about the current health status of their community through Community Health Profiles, Community Health Plans and Public Engagement Plans
- Advocating for a Population Health approach to Healthy Communities and by recognizing the social determinants of health
- Actively participating in Community Health Planning
- Sharing their knowledge and experience of Community Health Board mandates
- Evaluating Wellness Funds applications from groups that plan to improve the health of their community
- Reporting on their activities and plans for the future
