“... This is legislated poverty and has an expensive impact on health care, child services, the justice system and more in Ontario. If you invest upfront in reducing poverty, you will save down the road.” - @Gary_Bloch #EndDisabilityPoverty bramptonguardian.com/news-story/108…
'The deeper you are in poverty, the worse your health is.' Dr. @Gary_Bloch speaks to @BmptGuardian about how growing up in poverty can have a lasting impact on personal health: bramptonguardian.com/news-story/108…
