I am at least 18 years of age and I live or work in the clinic’s catchment/service area, which is bounded by Don River/Yonge St. to the west, Victoria Park Ave to the East, Lake Ontario to the south, and York Mills/401 to the north; or

Associate Member (non-voting):

I am at least 18 years of age and actively participate in the activities of the clinic but do not live or work in the clinic’s service area, or I belong to an associate agency where voting would create a conflict.

by case basis;
