Building the Future of Community Health: A Roundtable on Modernization and Innovation

​Ontario is investing $2.1B to connect 2 million people to primary care by 2029, with Community Health Centres (CHCs) positioned as a key delivery mechanism. This creates both unprecedented opportunity and pressure for organizations to scale operations, modernize systems, and innovate.

​This session brings together CHC leaders, clinicians, and system stakeholders for a candid, practical conversation on the realities of delivering community-based care in this moment of transformation. Moving beyond high-level discussion, we’ll explore the structural challenges facing Ontario’s community health sector and identify actionable paths forward.

​Featuring:

• ​Callum Tyrrell, VP of System Integration, Innovation, and Engagement, Scarborough Centre for Healthy Communities

• ​Michelle Joseph, CEO, Unison Health and Community Services

• ​Dr. Susan Joyce, Primary Care Lead, North Toronto Ontario Health Team

​Drawing on insights from leaders across the province, the discussion will examine how organizations can modernize within constrained budgets, navigate complex funding environments, and build sustainable innovation capacity, without disrupting frontline care.

​Toronto Tech Week is a citywide celebration of the people building what’s next. From May 26–29, 2026, founders, investors, and builders come together for hundreds of community-led events across Toronto, connecting tens of thousands of people around Canadian tech. Torontotechweek.com
