Message from the Co-Chairs
As an experienced health professional, I am keenly aware of the challenges facing Windsor-Essex in improving the health and wellbeing of our communities. The On Track to Success (OTTS) program supports education and literacy of our youth- leading to better employment and income, which are two key determinants of health in Canada. As a member of Women United, I know that we truly make a difference for youth health and life achievements.
Virgina Walsh Women United Co-Chair
As a Women United member, I see first hand how the On Track to Success Program makes a difference in the lives of young people in our community. I am excited to support it as a part of a long-term solution to alleviating poverty.
