Kootenay Boundary
Division of Family Practice
The Poverty Intervention Tool was launched on May 27, 2014.
As we are all well aware, poverty has a profound impact on health. The Poverty Intervention Tool not only raises the knowledge level of health practitioners regarding this critical Social Determinant, but also gives them concrete steps to help their patients.
Versions of the Tool specific to the Kootenay Boundary and the Province as a whole, plus a short list of tips for promoting them, are available on our website atwww.kbdivision.org/povertyintervention.
For those who wish to create a local version for their own community, the original InDesign files can also be requested through our site.
