Workforce Funder Collaborative

The Counselling Foundation of Canada is a supporter of The Workforce Funder Collaborative — a group of philanthropic minded organizations that have combined efforts and resources in support of a shared mission: improving workforce development and advancing systemic change to create a more equitable labour market and economy across the Greater Toronto Area.

The Collaborative has three main objectives:

Connect and build relationships with relevant stakeholders to problem-solve identified issues
Collaboratively develop sustainable, systems-change solutions to address these issues
Identify strategies to sustain and/or scale the solutions

The Counselling Foundation of Canada acknowledges the Huron-Wendat, Petun, Haundenosaunee, Anishinaabe and Mississauga Anishinaabe of New Credit share a special relationship to the territory in which our office is located. Toronto's long history of being a meeting place and centre of trade & commerce began thousands of years ago. Today, it is home to Indigenous Peoples from across Turtle Island and many who have come from away. We are grateful to have the opportunity to work in this territory and commit ourselves to learning the truth of our shared history and to engage in the process of reconciliation.
