Healthy Communities Policy and Capacity Building Initiative: A Contribution Analysis

business people talking at table

Over a five year period (2012-2017), Hastings Prince Edward Public Health developed and implemented a comprehensive health promotion approach that aimed to address elements of the local built environment that have the potential to influence healthy eating and active living (HEAL) behaviours. This contribution analysis report assesses how these strategies contributed to the development of relevant programs and policies with the potential to create supportive environments for HEAL in Hastings and Prince Edward counties.

SOUTH EAST HEALTH UNIT

As of Jan. 1, 2025 Hastings Prince Edward Public Health; Kingston, Frontenac and Lennox & Addington Public Health; and the Leeds, Grenville and Lanark District Health Unit have merged to form the South East Health Unit.

Partners and members of the public should continue to engage with their local public health offices as usual until otherwise directed.

Efforts are underway to develop branding for the South East Health Unit, which will take several months. In the meantime, you will see logos and other advertising material with Hastings Prince Edward Public Health branding. You may also see some documents using the legal name South East Health Unit.
