About the toolbox

This toolbox provides public health professionals and other interested parties with the tools used in the EffICAS study. These can help draw up a diagnostic portrait of food access and evaluate the process of establishing food co-ops, as well as their effects, in order to facilitate evaluation in this field.

The toolbox was funded by the Public Health Agency of Canada, as part of the Promoting Health Equity: Intersectoral Action on the Social Determinants of Health program.
