NWHU YAA

The Northwestern Health Unit is fighting to keep the Youth Action Alliance running.

The local tobacco free advocacy group is scheduled to be disbanded by the Provincial Government at the end of the August.

Health Officials have sent a letter to Premier Dalton McGuinty strongly urging him to maintain funding for the program.

Some municipalities in the region have also agreed to correspond with the Government highlighting the importance of the Alliance.
