The CEC is a proud member of the Black Creek and Jane Finch communities. We know the University gains much from being in the community. We want to make sure we continue to contribute in ways that demonstrate reciprocity and mutual support. Here are a few ways we are working on this.
What we offer:
-
To help foster mutually beneficial relationships, we can help community members and organizations connect with the University community and resources, maybe for research, for student placements, or other ways the community determines they want to work together.
