Welcome to the BHO Resource Library!

This library contains policies, procedures and tools that are related to Building Healthier Organizations.  The library is designed to help new organizations develop solid systems that are compliant with legislation, meet BHO requirements and foster quality. For existing organizations, the library provides an opportunity to further refine practices and prepare for an accreditation review using BHO.

The resources in the library were created by Community Health Centres (CHCs) in Ontario. Resources were first identified as being of high quality by a BHO review team, during the accreditation process. All potential resources for a specific topic area were further vetted and analyzed to make sure that they comply with BHO standards and legislative requirements (if applicable).  They were also reviewed in light of best practices in the not-for-profit sector. Legal advice was sought about a number of policies where there are legislated or legal implications.  A few examples of resources were then selected for inclusion in the library.
