Podcast host Peter Eckart joined Evette DeLuca, Executive Director of Partners for Better Health, during a site visit for their new CIC-START project, which is leveraging multi-sector partnerships to create a shared definition and action plan for health equity related to the causes and drivers of obesity in Ontario, CA. The project will integrate its existing data platform into local health systems' electronic medical records to provide a packaged screening intervention for health equity at hospitals and health centers across Ontario. Partners for Better Health was previously funded by the BUILD Health Challenge to systems and policy for long-term sustainability while expanding Health Hubs and environmental solutions across the City of Ontario.
