Title
Westhaven Vision 2020 : A Community Vision for a Healthier, Safer, and More Vibrant Neighbourhood
Abstract
In the spring of 2018, the NDG Community Council received funding from the Direction Régionale de Santé Publique de Montréal (DRSP) Mésure 17 programme ‘environnement favorable à la santé’ for a two-year project in Westhaven, a small, physically isolated and so- cio-economically vulnerable neighborhood located in the Montreal borough of Côte-des-Neiges–Notre-Dame-de-Grâce. The Mésure 17 fund was created to support projects with an approach based on the supportive environments model, which considers the built environ- ment as a significant influencer on social inequalities in health status in a community. Westhaven was chosen in large part due to its stark socio-demographic differences from other areas nearby.
