Creating Capacity for organizations
One of the ways Hamilton Centre for Civic Inclusion is creating capacity for positive change is by facilitating the launch and development of aligned organizations under its charitable umbrella. HCCI is proud to have acted as an organizational mentor to the Disability Justice Network of Ontario, Rafiki, Never Gonna Stop, and 7 Strong. We also provide informal help to other community groups, such as ACORN (Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now) Hamilton.
