Changing Perspectives,
Changing Lives.

Our vision is to improve the social and economic indicators of all vulnerable populations.

We see value in everyone. For a brief moment, let’s re-imagine Ontario where everyone can share the Canadian dream regardless of race, gender, age, religion, or politics. Where we look out for each other and support the most vulnerable among us. Where a culture of care is the norm rather than the exception.

Our vision re-imagines a world where we change lives through community. We believe that if we each do our small part to reach out to that young person struggling with family, school, or career, or that new immigrant who is unsure of their footing in our great country, or that isolated senior who just needs to hear a friendly voice, then that’s one additional step in creating healthy, productive, safe, and happy communities.

We want to be a catalyst for positive change, and we are driven by the same ideas we initially founded our organization upon: support, empowerment, progress, and changing lives.

Our mission is to improve the health, education and employment of vulnerable people, with focus on black and indigenous youth, by fostering strong community support networks. 

Our youth mental health programs address the problem in Ontario where one in five young person is not fully accessing the mental help they need. Low income and racialized youth are among those most impacted. 

We also address mental health in seniors through our friendly visiting programs for isolated seniors.  

We also do our part to help  with better outcomes in education, especially in vulnerable communities. If young people have role models from within their communities, they will benefit from them. Our mentoring programs introduce young people to successful people from within their own communities, who will share their own stories and provide useful life lessons. 

Our mission also extends to fostering support for individuals who are vulnerable due to the frailty that often comes with aging, through our in-home supports.
