In honour of Health Literacy Month, Dan chats with Maude Perreault, a registered dietitian, researcher, and assistant professor at the Université de Montréal, about how our budgets, emotions, values, and life stage shape the food choices we make. What does food literacy look like in everyday life, and how can it benefit us? Maude and Dan unpack it all!
We’re also joined by Jennifer Johnson, Executive Director of CHSSN (Community Health and Social Services Network), to explore health literacy, the importance of accessible health and social services for English-speaking communities across Quebec, and what’s ahead for the organization.
