Pictou County Community Health Boards

Pictou County Community Health Boards Pictou County CHB are using the page to update you on meetings, events and ongoing Community Health Plan work.

Community health boards are the eyes, ears and voices of the community and its residents. As a group of dedicated, enthusiastic volunteers, the community health boards work with Pictou County residents and the Pictou County Health Authority to improve the overall health of the community. In 2009 with consultation from the community and the Pictou County Health Authority, members from Central/East Pictou and West Pictou Community Health Boards drafted a Community Health Plan. Out of the plan, we were able to partner up with organizations in the surrounding community and fund their programs and initiatives that addressed the issues brought up in our plan. As we move forward in 2013, we look to team up with those in the surrounding community again during our Community Conversations or by filling out a survey online or in paper format. In the drafting stages of our 2014 Community Health Plan for Pictou County, it is important for your voice to be heard...
