Our Strategy 2025-2027

Holding our mission, vision and values at the heart of all we do, we will seek new ways to reach and engage all who could benefit from our programs, new opportunities to involve volunteers, new relationships and partnerships to support our work, and ever-deeper ways for our current members and partners to participate and advance our shared goals.

Strategic Priorities

  1. Increase our profile so that any Canadian who could benefit from our services is aware.
  2. Build our capacity to provide programs and services for people from all streams and demographics
  3. Increase and diversify our funding and support to enable growth and sustained service.
  4. Mobilize our members’ voices to prevent further workplace tragedies.
