Strategic Priorities

The Centre’s goals for 2006 to 2009 relate to two fundamental issues facing the organization and community. The goals will influence how the Centre’s staff and volunteers work with the community and how we work with each other. The goals are grounded under two main themes: Organizational Health and Community Engagement, Participation and Response.

ORGANISATIONAL HEALTH

The Centre is a strong, passionate and healthy organization in which to work, volunteer and participate. It is understood that staff, participants, volunteers and the Board are the foundation of our organization and the quality of our programs directly relates to ensuring a safe, supportive and healthy organizational environment.

COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT, PARTICIPATION AND RESPONSE

The community is given opportunities to participate in the decisions that impact on their lives. Our staff and volunteers are able to respond appropriately to new and emerging issues as identified by the community. We recognize and value the fact that residents, volunteers and staff are committed to building a healthier Jane Finch community and aim to expand on this potential. We are committed to building our capacity to adjust to the changing needs of our participants, and promote the healthy growth of our organization.
