The Toronto Community Benefits Network has built a strong community-labour partnership with a support base of workforce development agencies, learning institutions and funders. Collectively, we are having impact on how the development process works, guided by the principles of the foundation document crafted by our members and supporters. In it, we envision Toronto as an inclusive, thriving city in which all residents have equitable opportunities to contribute to healthy communities and a prospering economy. The expansion of transit now happening in Toronto will result in opportunities for good jobs and create markets for new businesses. It will also set the conditions for economic growth and intensification of urban areas around a network of mobility hubs. We believe that all Torontonians should have access to these opportunities stemming from infrastructure investments. TCBN's Primary Objectives Are To: * Provide equitable economic opportunities that promote economic inclusion for all Toronto residents * Contribute to the development of a system of training and workforce development programs that can enable economic inclusion * Support social enterprises and other related vehicles to economic inclusion through commitments to social procurement * Contribute to sustainable communities with neighbourhood and environmental improvements built through new transit infrastructure. * Ensure clear commitments and accountability from all parties to deliver on Community Benefits.
