Through our community development work, we intentionally develop partnerships and collaborate with residents, agencies and other community-based organizations to work together for the peace and well-being of the Jane-Finch community.

Jane-Finch Community Assessment: During the spring and summer of 2009, a group of YU staff and volunteers conducted a thorough assessment of the Jane-Finch community, seeking to bring together much of the research that already exists, connecting with community stakeholders, and portraying a fair and uplifting picture of this diverse community.

Black Creek Connect is a resource that enables community members to seek out specific resources in the Jane-Finch community – whether it be youth programming or other needed services. You can access Black Creek Connect on our website here.
