On the agenda

As the city filed it

Since amalgamation in 1998, Toronto Public Health (TPH) has experienced changes, growth, and evolving priorities as an organization. In 2017, Toronto City Council directed that TPH conduct an organizational review to assess effectiveness of the organization and identify possible opportunities for improvements. The goal of TPH's organizational review is to identify how to enhance the organization's ability to improve the health status of Toronto residents through prevention efforts that are focused at the population level.

It is also designed to strengthen TPH's capacity to deliver programs and services that meet the province's new 2018 Public Health Standards. As the re-organization has progressed and with a new Board of Health, it is important that the Board receive an update on the status.
