Co-operatives play an innovative role in Canada’s health care system, particularly in community-based clinics and home care. The co-operative model in Canada and overseas has distinct advantages in several priority areas of the health care system, including primary health care reform, home care, rural and remote health, and Aboriginal health. Through stimulating workshops and other activities, aspects of healthy communities in Canada and overseas will be presented and discussed. Experienced guest speakers will be invited to share their knowledge with participants. The Canadian Co-operative Association, through its Atlantic Member Engagement Program, is pleased to sponsor this retreat in partnership with the Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA), the Regional Co-operative Development Centre (RCDC), the Community Animation Program (CAP), and the Canadian Health Network (CHN). Please join CCA and learn about Healthy Communities – Global Perspectives/Co-operative Solutions. Dates for the retreat are Saturday, October 18, 9:30 am to Sunday, October 19, 3:00 pm. Health and Environment organizations are invited to set up a display at no charge. There is no cost to this event but registration is limited to 40 people. Various health, environmental, credit union and community development organizations will be in attendance. To request more information please contact Maureen MacLean (Member Engagement Coordinator) and Sarah Shima at <sshima@nb.sympatico.ca>. ____________________________________________________________________________ Did a friend forward this to you?
