Province Maintaining Two Community Hubs to Benefit Children and Families

Etobicoke, ON – Apr 4, 2017

Ontario is seeking to preserve local community services for families in Etobicoke and North York, including autism supports and licensed child care, by proposing to acquire two facilities from the Toronto District School Board (TDSB) that would be maintained as community hubs.

Mitzie Hunter, Minister of Education, and Sophie Kiwala, Parliamentary Assistant to the Minister of Children and Youth Services, were joined by Etobicoke Centre MPP Yvan Baker at Silver Creek Pre-School in Etobicoke today to make the announcement.

This proposed investment would mean the full range of support services currently offered at McNicoll Public School in North York and Silver Creek Public School in Etobicoke would continue to be available for local families. Services include:

McNicoll Public School
•Supports for children’s mental health and autism
•Licensed child care
•Early years child and family support program.

Silver Creek Public School
•Supports for children’s mental health and autism
•Licensed child care, including specialized care for children with special needs.

Community hubs improve the daily lives of people in Ontario by offering multiple services, often in a highly integrated, citizen-centred way and under one roof.

Supporting strong communities is part of the government’s plan to create jobs, grow our economy and help people in their everyday lives.
