Helping Prevent Stroke In Your Community
Connecting the Dots is a dynamic, community engagement process that sets the stage for collaborative work on chronic disease prevention. We work with communities to bring together a wide range of people and sectors to increase opportunities for collaboration. Participants talk about how to 'work together differently’ throughout the continuum of services, including health promotion, public health, hospitals, community services, and long-term care.
