Mandate and Desired Outcomes
Collaboratively, we work together to:
Create a supportive network that allows health and social service providers, Francophone community members, Francophone community organizations, and partner organizations to regularly connect to discuss strategies to address the identified gaps in the provision of French Language Services in the region.
Bring a collective focus on outreach, health promotion, illness and injury prevention, as well as chronic disease prevention and management strategies for this under-served population.
Promote French Language Service best practices in addressing service improvement areas across health and social service sectors.
Enhance French Language Service capacity of health and social service providers to provide linguistically and culturally appropriate services.
Improve Francophone access to French language health and social services.
Our Welcoming Committee
The Mississauga Halton FLS CoP is one of the 5 subregions in Southwestern Ontario launching a Welcoming Community strategy for bilingual professionals in health and social services. The goal of this initiative includes:
- supporting the identification of students enrolled in postsecondary programs who hold a French or bilingual high school diploma
- developing and promoting Welcoming Community activities for bilingual students to promote recruitment, integration, and retention of bilingual professionals in the region
- establishing opportunities to connect bilingual professionals with FLS CoP health and social service provider organizations.
We are looking to connect with French-speaking health or social services students, or internationally educated professionals.
