Who Benefits? Gaps in Medication Coverage for Ontario Workers
A Toronto Star EXCLUSIVE for the launch of our newest report.
1.5 million workers in Ontario do not have drug coverage and of these workers, part-time workers are hit the hardest. In our new report, we looked at how the drug coverage gaps for workers in Ontario leave many people behind.
We secured an exclusive with the Toronto Star for the launch and even got political leaders to tweet about the value of national pharmacare. You can read the report here.
Can we ensure everyone
has an affordable life?
A new joint blog series in partnership with the Broadbent Institute.
Viewing affordability as a commonly shared and holistic goal of health provides stable footing to consider an important question: Is our government making a healthy life possible for the many, or for the few?
In our new blog series, we explore 'affordability' in the context of health. The series launched with a piece published in Policy Options on December 10, 2019: Can we ensure that everyone has an affordable life?
In 2020, Wellesley Institute will be hosting a series of public talks, partnered events and continuing our #WellesleyTalks events. Follow us at @wellesleyWI for more information as the year continues!
