Poverty has a profound impact on health across the life course, with impacts on both physical and mental health. Primary Care Providers can play a key role in supporting patients to connect to income supports.

In this session, our panel will outline a pathway for equitable attachment to primary care. We will introduce a toolkit designed to support interdisciplinary teams—including those in Family Health Teams, clinics and other primary care settings—in defining target populations and outcome measures, building community partnerships and recruiting and retaining providers for new patients.
