Etobicoke Pre & Post Natal Program

The program is designed to encourage healthy child development through nutrition and social support. Program participants enjoy a variety of healthy snacks, and supplementary food is available to take home.

Information and advice on nutrition, health, and other concerns are provided through one-on-one counseling, group discussions, and sharing ideas with one another. Program participants who may benefit from other services in the community are referred as well.
