Community of Caring Elements

COMMUNITY VOICE

Honoring community voice by creating opportunities and supporting Community Care Centre’s Neighbourhood Councils, Sacred 7 Youth Council, Board of Directors, Children in Care and regular consultations with our Indigenous community to inform and guide our services.

RELATIONSHIPS

Community of Caring requires relationships, and relationships result in meaningful partnerships with stakeholders from government, private sector, philanthropy and our large network of sister organizations and community members. We equally value our internal relations.

OPPORTUNITIES

The cornerstone of our approach to services that strive to build community capacity for self-care.  Increased skills and knowledge results when we build on strengths and are value-based.

LEADERSHIP IN ACTION

Fostering leadership opportunities and affecting positive change in how the ‘systems’ deliver services to families and community (the Ma Mawi way).

 

Our Service Areas

Youth Development
