P.E.I. French population looks for health improvements

The PEI French Health Network has issued a call for proposals looking for ideas to support health and wellness on the Island in French.

• New health committees will provide Islanders voice on health care

The group says it wants to target seniors, youth, and vulnerable or at-risk populations. It's also looking for ideas to promote healthy living in remote Island communities with low concentrations of French speakers.

Objectives include improving mental health, increasing physical activity and reducing tobacco usage.

The deadline for submissions is June 24.
