Social Action

The problems people in our communities face are many: food insecurity, lack of affordable housing, low-paying jobs, and living below the poverty line are just a few. Changing the way our society works to fix these issues is exactly what our Social Action program does. Working together with our neighbours, we help people speak out for what's important to them, and to their communities.

FAQs

  • What is community development?

    The purpose of community development is to improve the well-being of vulnerable groups and communities by working together to gain an understanding of the issues and come up with solutions for change.

  • Why is community outreach important?

    Community outreach ensures people have access to support, learn about services and most importantly, have their voices heard.
