Healthy Cities are Safe Cities: Making our city safer through pop-up health care clinics

Wherever we are in the city, we all deserve to feel and be safe. Public health is a foundation of public safety. When people feel healthy and experience less pain, they are more likely to contribute positively to the community.

Over the last year, every week on Tuesday, the city of Edmonton and public health partners have set up a pop-up health clinic in west Edmonton, to take care of people experiencing homelessness. In addition to health improvements, clinic presence has contributed to a stronger sense of safety in the area, with fewer visible health crises and less gang-related activity reported.
