title: Men's Health Initiative of British Columbia: connecting the dots.
abstract: The Men's Health Initiative of British Columbia (MHIBC) was created as a large-scale umbrella initiative aimed at connecting the dots by identifying, coordinating, and consolidating the existing foci of excellence across the many domains of male health in the province, enabling widespread community and professional education, risk assessment, prevention-promotion, screening, and early diagnosis. The MHIBC will reach out to men across all ages, races, and socioeconomic groups and will apply a male lens to current and future health research, health promotion, awareness, and health policy development.
