About the Partner Organizations

The Ontario Health Promotion E-Mail Bulletin is produced by Health Nexus and Public Health Ontario. 

Health Nexus is Ontario's longest standing health promotion organization. Health Nexus helps individuals, groups and communities use health promotion strategies to achieve health and well-being. Health Nexus provides service in English and French and emphasizes building new visions, improving practices for health promotion, and supporting practitioner, organizational and community capacity. Health Nexus provides consultation services, various learning events, and access to publications, including electronic bulletins. The OHPE's counterpart in French is Le Bloc-Notes. A major Health Nexus program is Best Start: Ontario's Maternal, Newborn and Early Childhood Development Resource Centre.

Public Health Ontario (PHO) is an arm's-length government agency dedicated to protecting and promoting the health of all Ontarians and reducing inequities in health. As a hub organization, PHO links public health practitioners, front-line health workers and researchers to the best scientific intelligence and knowledge from around the world.

In spring 2011, the Health Communication Unit (THCU) located at the Dalla Lana School of Public Health moved to Public Health Ontario. Building on THCU’s broad base of expertise, networks and resources, Public Health Ontario has integrated these services as part of our broader health promotion capacity building services available to public health and health care intermediaries.

Public Health Ontario wishes to acknowledge and thank THCU staff and many partners who contributed to the development of OHPE over the last several years.

Content of the OHPE Bulletin is provided as an information-sharing service. Inclusion of information and resources does not represent endorsement by Health Nexus, Public Health Ontario or the funders.
