This webinar is presented by the Ontario Caregiver Organization (OCO) and the Association of Family Health Teams of Ontario.

# Ontario’s 4 million caregivers matter.

Managing medication. Scheduling appointments. Communicating with healthcare teams. These are some of the critical tasks caregivers manage for family, friends and neighbours.  When they’re supported, they provide better care, improving health outcomes for patients. 

This event is presented by the Canadian Institute for Social Prescribing (CISP)

This event is presented by the Institute for Pandemics and the Dalla Lana School of Public Health at the University of Toronto.

Misinformation spread through social media has been responsible for an increasing mistrust of public health, particularly amplified during the COVID-19 pandemic. Existing analysis tools of social media and other online content rely on logic and science, often ignoring people’s beliefs, cultural backgrounds and feelings when it comes to understanding health information. 

Join us for a dynamic panel discussion exploring how social prescribing is bridging health and social care across Canada. In this webinar, we’ll delve into how social prescribing models are being developed and implemented in various health and community settings with diverse population needs. Practitioners will share case studies, discuss challenges and opportunities, and provide insights into cross-sector collaborations. Whether you're a healthcare professional, policy maker, researcher or community leader, this webinar is an opportunity to learn from leading voices in social prescribing, ask questions, and gain valuable insights into holistic care models.
