All lives are improved when everyone in the community succeeds

The measure of a truly compassionate and just society lies in how we care for our most vulnerable members. At The Neighbourhood Group, we've always provided the highest-quality programs and services to support people in need. But that's not enough. We must tackle the systemic injustices and inequalities that persist at every level of society, from the local to the national and its why we will always work collaboratively with our community to develop innovative solutions and build a more equitable future for all.
