About Us

Huron Perth Public Health (HPPH) uses evidence-based programs, services, and policies to address a wide range of health issues at a community level. Our work includes immunizations and infectious disease control to chronic disease prevention, environmental health, and emergency preparedness. 

Accountability is one of our core values:  

• We focus on our public health mandate and are committed to transparent accountability for the use of our resources

As a publicly funded organization, we are accountable to the community, our board, and the provincial ministry of health. 

HPPH is governed by the Huron Perth Board of Health, made up of municipal representatives from Huron County, Perth County, Stratford and St. Marys, as well as provincial appointees. 

We operate under the Ontario Public Health Standards and the Health Protection and Promotion Act set by the Ontario Ministry of Health.  

We regularly report on our performance through annual reports, strategic plans, and financial statements.
