CATCH Questionnaire

The Community Action Toward Children's Health (CATCH) coalition asked all candidates for School Trustee to provide answers to the following questions:
  1. In what ways will you help make your community more child friendly (for example: safe routes to school and access to services), and how will you report your progress?
  2. How will you help children in your community find housing that is safe, comfortable and does not cost more than 30% of the family budget, and how will you report your progress?
  3. What will you do to increase access to community owned resources and facilities to improve early childhood development (for example: co-location of services in public buildings and remove barriers to wider use of public buildings), and how will you report your progress?
  4. What will you do to encourage businesses to be more child friendly (for example: breastfeeding friendly policies and child safe public spaces), and how will you report your progress?
  5. As an elected mayor, councillor or trustee, how will you ensure that all council and board decisions are made from a child friendly perspective, and how will you keep residents aware of your advocacy for children?
