Niagara Priority Profiles

These profiles provide information about specific populations in Niagara. They show how where they live, grow, work and play affects their health.

You can use them to think about health in any sector or organization. As population changes, programs can be adapted to meet changing needs. This data helps to plan programs and activities that improve health and health equity. 

People have many layers to their identity and each person is unique. When planning projects, think about how to include people with different experiences.
