From October 16-22, Chigamik is celebrating Community Health and Wellbeing Week by inviting the community to take part in a variety of programs open to everyone. The goal of this initiative is to shed light on local programs, services and community engagement initiatives that build stronger, more resilient and healthier communities across Ontario. This year’s overaching theme, Community Health is Essential, underscores the crucial role that Community Health Centres lay in sustaining community health and wellbeing.
