WATERLOO REGION

We embody the phrase "nothing about us without us." We believe that lived experience should be the basis for policy and decision-making, and that grassroots and community-based solutions are the foundation of social justice and collective action... Community We focus on geographic community where we find issues and seek solutions. We acknowledge and work with communities of interest as ways people come together to improve quality of life... The Social Development Centre Waterloo Region (SDC) was incorporated in 1967 after years of local mobilizing around community identified gaps in services, especially for youth and families. Over the years, we have incubated countless community projects, service activities, groups, and non-profits. Today our primary pillars are Housing & Homelessness, Grassroots Infrastructure, and Lived Expertise. Our service programs include Civic Hub Waterloo Region, Eviction Prevention Peer Support, Lived Expertise Support, and Festival of Neighbourhoods.
