Goals

• To build community capacity to use health information;

• To foster academic-hospital-community collaborations to improve population health;
• To demonstrate health inequities in order to address them.

Strategy for achieving our goals:

• Provide health profiles of Toronto communities for Toronto communities with relevant and timely information in a user-friendly format;
