The ‘Blueprint Workshops’ will be designed to allow for input from community members towards the direction of Social Development programs and services. “We’re looking for a third party to organize and facilitate these workshops,” said Interim Director Alexis Shackleton. “Doing so will allow us to work closer with community members and focus on strategic planning.”

1. Housing (restructuring of programs and products)
2. Social Assistance (direction, supplemental to the base programs)
3. Membership (Community Decision Making Process discussion points of consideration)
