Group Programs
The Family Health Team offers a variety of free group classes and patient education sessions.
As a patient of the Family Health Team, you have the opportunity to attend our free group classes. Patients who want to learn more information about our group classes and find out which classes are suitable for them are encouraged to speak to their family physician or an allied health professional.

- Become more aware of your own personal problematic eating triggers.
- Learn techniques that you can use for dealing with these triggers and for changing your eating behaviours.
- Learn strategies that will assist you in maintaining a long-term positive relationship with food.
