Headwaters receives Valued Partner Award from headwaters Communities in Action




Headwaters Health Care Centre (HHCC) recently received the Valued Partner Award from Headwaters Communities in Action (HCIA). The award recognizes key community partners that have helped HICA with projects which enhance the well-being of the region.

Established in 2004, HCIA is a grassroots citizen group operating in Dufferin County and the Town of Caledon. HCIA offers leadership and works collaboratively on initiatives that respond to shared community opportunities and/or concerns.

“We are truly honoured to receive the Valued Partner Award from HCIA,” said Liz Ruegg, President and CEO at Headwaters Health Care Centre. “Working alongside community groups like HCIA provides us with opportunities to contribute to the health and well-being of the communities we serve, and help to shape the future of this region.”

In support of HICA initiatives, HHCC donated classroom space for HCIA's CANBIKE Instructor Certification Program and is participating in the Rural Transportation Working Group which HCIA has convened to generate shared solutions to meet transportation needs in rural regions.

“Strong community partnerships are critical to the success of HCIA's initiatives and the support of Headwaters Health Care Centre continues to play a big role in our operations,” said Sylvia Cheuy, a volunteer with the HCIA Leadership Council. “With the support of partners like Headwaters Health Care Centre, HCIA is able to sustain and advance our mandate so that our communities can benefit from opportunities that are possible only by working together.”

HCIA has been actively involved in local food and farming initiatives, championing the development of a trails network, the creation of a report measuring social, economic and environmental wellbeing of Dufferin County and the Town of Caledon, and expanding the region's not-for-profit sector.
