Welcome
to Riverdale East-African Canadian Association
The East African community of Toronto is people who share common culture
and tradition regardless of their country of origin. In Toronto, as
in Canada, these people are faced with same experience and need. Riverdale
East African Canadian Association is created to respond to this common
need.
The Riverdale East African Canadian Association's objective is to work
with groups, and networks of community members to identify the issues
that are important to the community, as well as to develop and implement
strategies to address them.
In our work we utilize a community development approach: we build partnerships
with newcomers, ethno-specific and neighbourhood groups, families, youth
and seniors.
Community advisory councils who help us to identify priorities, direct
our activity and evaluate our progress guide all aspects of our program.
To realize and implement its objectives and goals, the Riverdale East
African Canadian Association will work in partnership with other governamental
agencies and community organizations involved in the development of
community health, senior citizen care, education, employment, youth
support services, legal aid service, substance abuse prevention, family
Support services, immigration support services, housing and Welfare
services
