The number of older adults in Toronto is increasing. In 2021, the number of Torontonians who were 65 years and older was estimated to be 477,000. That number is estimated to rise by over 50 per cent by 2041, with people 75 years and older rising the most.
\r\n\r\n
This demographic shift comes with anticipated population health impacts. Poorer health outcomes among low-income older adults, increased difficulty accessing health and social services, effects of social isolation and loneliness and health impacts related to changing environments are expected. However, the health of older adults can be positively affected by protective behaviours, such as increased physical activity and socialization.
\r\n\r\n
To prepare for this change, Toronto Public Health is working closely with community partners and relevant City partners. This includes supporting the Toronto Seniors Strategy and identifying and implementing interventions to enhance the social, natural and built environments that promote and protect the health of a growing population of older adults.
\r\n\r\n
First Nations, Inuit and Métis (FNIM) communities additionally face impacts of colonialism, systematic racism, discrimination, unmet care needs, service access barriers and inequities. Toronto Public Health will continue to partner and engage with FNIM communities, organizations and service providers to understand these impacts.
\r\n\r\n
Toronto Public Health will continue to work through multisectoral collaborations to advance a city that is increasingly age-friendly, age-inclusive and age-equitable for its older adults.

These programs help to ensure that children and youth, especially those at risk for poor nutritional intake, have access to safe and culturally appropriate nutritious food. Research continues to demonstrate that healthy school meals support student mental and physical health, and positively impact food choices. Participating students focus better, achieve academic success, develop greater nutrition knowledge and healthier eating habits. These positive impacts are shown to continue into adulthood resulting in long term positive health behaviours, such as reduced diet-related chronic disease.1,2
\r\n
Toronto's Student Nutrition Program has two streams: the Public Schools Stream, which includes public schools and some grandfathered independent schools and community sites, and the Independent Schools Stream. Student nutrition programs depend on funding from the City of Toronto (the City), the Government of Ontario, student and parent contributions, community and school board fundraising, and corporate donations. Additional funding and support from the federal and provincial governments is needed to meet student needs and ensure sustainable programs.
\r\n
This report makes recommendations for the 2024 Student Nutrition Program service subsidy allocations, which includes an 8.5 per cent cost of food inflationary increase of $1,495.9 thousand from the approved 2023 budget. The proposed combined allocations to the Angel Foundation for Learning and the Toronto Foundation for Student Success are for the purpose of administering the 2024 approved municipal funding to eligible student nutrition programs across the City of Toronto and total $19,134.2 thousand which includes $280.1 thousand held in reserve for appeals and Fall applications.

I am recommending that the Board establish a Medical Officer of Health Hiring Committee composed of five members: the Chair, the Vice-Chair, two citizen members, and one Councillor member. The Committee may also wish to seek outside expertise from the City’s Chief People Officer and/or an external executive search firm.
