Implementation Panel for Our Health, Our City: A Mental Health, Substance Use, Harm Reduction and Treatment Strategy for Toronto

2024.HL11.3

The Medical Officer of Health recommends that:   1. The Board of Health approve the Terms of Reference attached as Attachment 1 to this report, for the Our Health, Our City Implementation Panel.   2. The Board of Health appoint a Board of Health Director to be the Chair of the Our Health, Our City Implementation Panel for the remainder of the 2022-2026 Toronto City Council term, and until a successor is appointed.    3. The Board of Health direct the Medical Officer of Health to initiate a process to recruit candidates for the Our Health, Our City Implementation Panel in consultation with the Chair of the Our Health, Our City Implementation Panel, and to report back to the Board of Health in the third quarter of 2024 with the recommended candidates for appointment.   4. The Board of Health conclude the Toronto Drug Strategy Implementation Panel and replace it with the Our Health, Our City Implementation Panel.

Any financial impacts resulting from the adoption of this report can be accommodated within approved operating or capital budgets.

In November 2023, the Board of Health endorsed Our Health, Our City: A Mental Health, Substance Use, Harm Reduction and Treatment Strategy for Toronto. Our Health, Our City (OHOC) presents a city-wide, comprehensive, population-level approach to help address both mental health and substance use related issues in Toronto. It offers recommendations for all levels of government, City divisions, community partners, and health and social organizations across Toronto.   A key guiding principle in the development of OHOC and its implementation is the meaningful inclusion of people with lived and living experience. The participation of people who use drugs and people with lived/living experience of mental health challenges and illnesses, as well as frontline service providers who work with these communities, is integral to the success of OHOC.    In support of OHOC, the Board of Health directed the Medical Officer of Health to establish an implementation panel and to report back to the Board of Health in the first quarter of 2024 with recommendations on the panel terms of reference and membership selection criteria.   This report outlines a process for establishing and convening the Our Health, Our City Implementation Panel that will ensure inclusion of people with lived and living experience and frontline service providers in guiding the implementation of the OHOC.

2024 Board of Health Self-Evaluation

2024.HL11.4

The Medical Officer of Health recommends that: 1. The Board of Health receive this report for information.

There is no financial impact resulting from the adoption of the recommendation in this report.

This report contains the results of the self-evaluation of Toronto's Board of Health (the "Board"), conducted in 2024. The Minister of Health publishes the <a href="https://files.ontario.ca/moh-ontario-public-health-standards-en-2021.pdf">Ontario Public Health Standards: Requirements for Programs, Services and Accountability (OPHS)</a> as per Section 7 of the Health Protection and Promotion Act. The Standards identify the minimum expectations for public health programs and services to be delivered by Ontario's 34 boards of health. Boards of health are accountable for implementing the Standards, including the requirement to have a self-evaluation process of its governance practices and outcomes.   Overall, the Board's self-evaluation survey findings were positive, indicating that it has strong governance and understanding of roles and responsibilities, uses effective relationships and informed decision-making, and is responsive to the immediate and long-term public health needs of the community. In addition to the positive findings, opportunities and next steps were identified, including encouraging collaboration between Board members, increasing knowledge of community partners, and exploring community engagement opportunities with community stakeholders. Toronto Public Health ("TPH") will work with the City Clerk's Office and the Chair of the Board of Health to explore opportunities to address these findings over the course of the current and upcoming terms of the Board.
