Acknowledgments
Social Rx Waterloo would not be possible without help from co-facilitators of the University of Waterloo’s HLTH 480: Competencies in Health course, where our project began. We give thanks for the support of Dr. Tania Del Matto, Erin Hogan, Dr. Diane Williams, and Dr. Jennifer Yessis, who provided a launching point for our work in supporting local primary health care.
The project’s beginning was also funded through the Fulbright Canada-Maple Leaf Foundation Community Action Program (CAP). We’re grateful to the CAP for taking a chance on our initiative, helping move this work from campus to communities.
Finally, thank you to many other people who provided us direction and support, even if only over a small coffee: Dr. Kelly Anthony, Dr. Neil Arya, Sarah Callaghan, Tara Chen, Dr. Maureen Drysdale, Dr. Lai-Tze Fan, Justine Gerroir, Meaghan Gibbons, Dr. Scott Laing, Joe Mancini, Eleni Pallotta, David Siladi, Alison Schroeder, and Sarah Switzer.
We look forward to adding to these thanks over time.
