About Us

Community Connection is an information and referral organization with a mission to create and improve access to services for people.

We leverage our unique skills and innovative technology to engage in partnerships focused on addressing local and regional community needs.

Community Connection was established in 1969 as the Collingwood and District Information Centre, a social purpose organization and registered charity

View our Vision/Mission/Values.

Community Connection is committed to building a more just and equitable community. We recognize the history of oppression that has resulted in ongoing disparities for the people and communities we serve and the limitations of a nonprofit framework to address them. Our mission and vision inspire us to challenge ourselves to deconstruct frameworks of oppression while building opportunities for learning, change, and accountability. We know this work is pressing, and we will always be learning.

Check out our Accreditation and Credentialing, based on Inform USA’s standards for information and referral organizations and programs.

We have a fantastic team of 30+ people inspired by helping others. The work within four areas of focus: inquiry services, data resources, business intelligence and social enterprise.

Learn more about our partnerships and projects. Community Connection does nothing alone. We work within multiple shared governance and shared service delivery models.

Land Acknowledgement

For over 15,000 years, the First Nations walked upon and cared for the lands we call home. The Anishinabek, Haudenosaunee, Ojibwe, and many others cared for their families and communities the way we now seek to care for ours.

Community Connection acknowledges the Lake Simcoe-Nottawasaga Treaty of 1818. We respect all Nation-to-Nation agreements that have formed relationships with the original inhabitants of Turtle Island, the reality of our shared history, and the current contributions of Indigenous people within our community.

We seek to continue empowering expressions of pride amongst all diverse people in our community.
