Eating Well

Grey Bruce Public Health works to support access to safe, nutritious, appropriate, affordable food in our communities. Our Dietitians and program staff work together and with the community to:

• Assess and report on the nutritional health of our communities.
• Create policies, supportive environments, and programs to support healthy eating.
• Engage with our communities to increase the intake of nutritious foods for the health of people and the planet.
• Empower partners and communities to dismantle diet culture and support healthy relationships with food and bodies.
• Lead and support members of the public and community partners to address household food insecurity and positive food systems.
