To celebrate its 20th anniversary, the Ontario Healthy Communities Coalition is holding a 2-day symposium to reflect and exchange ideas on the progress that has been made towards creating Healthy Communities in Ontario. Walking tours, key-note addresses, panel presentations and dialogue will be mixed with social interaction, good food and entertainment. Participants will have the opportunity to explore examples of community initiatives that integrate multiple dimensions. Participants will come away with new ideas, renewed vigor and an expanded network of community building. Find out more at the Ontario Healthy Communities site
