As the city filed it
This report provides the Board of Health with an overview of proposed changes to the Toronto Urban Health Fund (TUHF) program administration. TUHF program administration is supported by two Board of Health committees: the TUHF Review Panel and the TUHF Indigenous Review Panel. Toronto Public Health's TUHF program supports the recruitment of review panel members and recommends the members to the Board of Health for the Board to appoint to the TUHF review panels.

The City Clerk's Office administers the meetings of the review panels. The City of Toronto recently implemented an online grant management system. First piloted in 2018, and phased over the last several years, the Toronto Grants, Rebates and Incentives Portal (TGRIP) is an end-to-end system with robust features to manage and administer granting programs such as TUHF. The new TGRIP system presents an opportunity to review and improve operational efficiencies in the administration of the TUHF program and the review panel process. This report is intended to propose changes to the process of appointing TUHF review panel members to address recruitment challenges and to adopt the TGRIP for the administration of the TUHF.
