| When individuals feel connected they feel safe. The strength of the Lakeshore Corridor Community Team lies in its connections, those informal relationships that occur everyday in our community. A friendly smile, a perceptive ear, and an openness to others can make all the difference when someone is going through a rough patch. | |
| Our Mission Our mission is to build a stronger sense of caring and giving in our community through action and participation. | |
| Our Vision Our vision is to enrich the lives of people living in the Lakeshore Corridor Area by building compassionate relationships and seeking to identify and meet unmet needs that will improve the quality of life for individuals and the community as a whole. | |
| Our History The Lakeshore Corridor Community Team (LCCT) was founded in 1999 by a group of community members along Lakeshore Road. These members were local residents, business owners, representatives from Community Living Mississauga, Family Services of Peel and members of the faith community. They were concerned about the unmet needs in the Lakeshore Corridor community and believed that in order to meet these needs, strong healthy neighbourhood relationships must be developed. | |
| What we do We are an organization dedicated to building relationships within our community, in order to enrich and strengthen the lives of community members experiencing difficult times. We encourage residential and commercial neighbours to actively participate in the program, and believe that everyone has skills and talents that can strengthen the community.
The Lakeshore Corridor Community Team does this by linking the identified need with the resources required. We consider ourselves “connectors” and have brought together local residents, businesses, associations, government organizations, faith groups and social services within the Lakeshore Corridor and beyond. We strive to expand our relationships in order to keep our program fresh and innovative.
