About this event
Please join us for our First in a 6 part series of getting to know how Community Benefits Agreements can enrich our neighbourhoods! It will be an evening of discussion and action supporting our Community Benefits Agreements group in South Etobicoke!
Our First Worshop Topic: Getting to Know CBA's, Affordable housing & Community Benefits Workshop
What are CBA's?
A Community Benefit Agreement is a proven way to provide jobs and other benefits for community residents. In many countries, communities demand CBAs when new Industrial-Commercial-Institutional developments occur or when public sector projects are built. (communitybenefits.ca)
In partnership with The Toronto Community Benefits Network, LAMP and The South Etobicoke Housing Affordability (SEHA) groups.
We will be hosting an informative and informal evening of discussion in advance of the City of Toronto's proposed development meetings that will directly affect South Etobicoke!
