Ontario Health Update — Call for NMCN Committee Members

Ontario Health logo

The Northern Maternal Child Network is seeking new members to join the Steering Committee, Child & Youth Committee, and Maternal-Newborn Committees. Joining a committee within the NMCN offers a meaningful opportunity to shape the direction of maternal, newborn, child, and youth health care in the North. By contributing just one hour per month, members help provide oversight, identify and advocate for population-specific health needs, and support the development and sharing of evidence-based guidelines that promote equitable, high-quality care. Committees also offer the chance to collaborate with regional and provincial partners, influence strategic priorities, and be part of a dedicated network working to improve health outcomes across the region.

Applications will be accepted until October 22, 2025. For any questions, feel free to reach out to Crystal Lawrence, Regional Manager, via clawrence@hsnsudbury.ca
