  • Have Your Say: Health & Wellness in Greater Madawaska – Community Survey

    Have Your Say: Health & Wellness in Greater Madawaska – Community Survey

    The Township of Greater Madawaska is working with local partners to improve access to health and wellness services across our community.

    In early December, we held in-person “Let’s Kick Off the Health & Wellness Hub Initiative” sessions in Griffith and Calabogie. Residents shared what’s working, what’s missing, and what “care closer to home” should look like. Those conversations gave us a strong list of needs and ideas.

    This Phase 2 Community Survey asks all residents to:

    • Tell us about your current access to health care
    • Identify which services and programs you would actually use closer to home
    • Help confirm and prioritize the top needs for our community over the next 3–5 years

    Your responses will:

    • Shape the Health & Wellness Hub Initiative and Framework 2.0
    • Guide Township advocacy, including delegations to the Ministry of Health and Ministry of Infrastructure
    • Help partners decide which services and programs to bring into Greater Madawaska first

    Share your perspective by completing the Health & Wellness in Greater Madawaska Community Survey

    The Survey closes January 2, 2026.
