Vision for a Neighbourhood Health Home

For over 50 years, community health centres (CHCs) in Ontario have delivered comprehensive primary health care according to the shared principles described in our Model of Health and Wellbeing (MHWB). Like a neighbourhood home, our member organizations reach beyond their doors to improve the lives of people in their communities. Although it began with CHCs, this approach is now embodied by organizations from multiple primary health care models, who together form the Alliance for Healthier Communities. 

This document elaborates on a vision of primary health care based on the MHWB, bred in our bones. If implemented, it will improve the health and wellbeing of people across Ontario.
