Event Description:
Mississauga Health and Trillium Health Partners will be hosting the first Community Connect Workshop – an opportunity for local residents, health care providers and social service organizations in Mississauga to come together and share their thoughts, experiences, and ideas on the access to and delivery of health care and social services in our region. This workshop is designed to foster open dialogue surrounding the challenges faced and needs of individuals, families and communities in our region when it comes to identifying and accessing care. By actively participating in this session, attendees will help shape local priorities and guide the development of programs and services that are better aligned with the wants and needs of our diverse region.
The feedback gathered from this session will play a key role in guiding Mississauga Health’s strategy moving forward. The insights will be compiled into a detailed post-session report for our members, identifying opportunities to strengthen existing programs and develop new initiatives that better meet the needs of our communities.
