Meet your ‘new’ public health unit

We are pleased to announce that Hastings Prince Edward Public Health; Kingston, Frontenac and Lennox & Addington Public Health; and the Leeds, Grenville and Lanark District Health Unit have merged to form Southeast Public Health (SEPH), effective January 1, 2025.

By combining our knowledge, strengths, and resources, we have unlocked new possibilities to address the complex public health challenges facing the communities we serve. We are now a stronger, more resilient organization, equipped to deliver a broad variety of services that touch every stage of life and every corner of our vast region.

Our region, our agency, and our people are blossoming together through change in southeastern Ontario.
