Health Advisory Councils

Advisory Councils

Building a better health system with the voice of our community

Health Advisory Councils provide a grassroots perspective and an understanding of their communities' health needs.

Council members are interested in listening to the people and committed to giving valuable feedback to AHS.

Twelve councils across Alberta represent many different experiences, cultures and ages, and provide critical feedback that informs decisions that affect how AHS delivers health services and cares for Albertans.

About Us

Council members are volunteers and reside within their council geographic area. Members are recruited annually across Alberta, and membership lists can be found through the council menu on this page.To learn more about each council's role and achievements, view their brochure.
