Our Collaborative Change Model
Our Collaborative Change Model is a bold community-driven road map designed to amplify our collective impact and advance our mission to eliminate poverty in Guelph and Wellington County. This model is not just a plan; it is a commitment to collaborative upstream action and centring intersectional lived experience.
