We are a City of Toronto agency, and a registered charity, with a unique approach to community building that allows us to deliver direct service, accessible space and ongoing leadership that makes a real difference in people's lives while promoting broader understanding and respect. In 2017/18, we had over 93,000 visits to the programs and services run by our staff, and over 200 community-led groups hosted 4,012 events in our spaces.
