Joint Research Ethics Board
The Salvation Army Toronto Grace Health Centre (TGHC) is a partner on the Joint Research Ethics Board (JREB) along with West Park Healthcare Centre.

- Respect for human dignity.
- Respect for free and informed consent.
- Respect for vulnerable persons.
- Respect for privacy and confidentiality.
- Respect for justice and inclusiveness.
- Balancing harms and benefits.
TGHC’s representatives on the JREB are:
