HEALTH PROMOTION
Health Promoter
The Centre's Health Promoter works to assist both clients of Niagara Falls CHC and persons from the broader community to improve their health by contributing to healthy public policy, strengthening community action and participation, as well as supporting individuals and groups in the development of skills related to community building. A health promotion perspective keeps in mind that there are broad determinants that affect the health of individuals, family and community. These determinants include:
Income
Employment
Child Development
Education/Literacy
Healthy Environments
Housing
Health Promoters develop partnerships with other community agencies to improve the health of the wider community. They also provide programs/groups that help individuals improve their lives by impacting their health for the better. You can find information about upcoming health promotion programs on this website under the Programs listing on the main menu or by calling the Health Promoter at (905) 356-4222 ext. 293
