Open Board Forums

Open to the public; our Open Board Forums are an opportunity to join a conversation with our Board of Directors.

Open Board Forum

Every year, Vancouver Coastal Health (VCH) holds Open Board Forums to provide an opportunity for community members to directly hear from and engage with the organization's senior leadership and subject matter experts.

Thank you to everyone who attended our last Open Board Forum focused on Richmond on February 22, 2023. To access a recording of this session and others, please see the links below under past presentations.

We will announce information about the next Open Board Forum closer to the event.
