- Championing Change - Advocacy at Homefront Community Services
At Homefront Community Services, we believe in the power of advocacy to drive social change and create a more inclusive society. Our work doesn’t end at providing services; we also strive to influence policies and attitudes that impact people living in Toronto.
Our Advocacy Work
Our advocacy initiatives are centered around

We actively engage with policymakers, urging them to adopt and implement policies that are conducive to the welfare of Torontonians.
2) Public Awareness
We conduct seminars, workshops, and conferences to raise awareness about the several challenges faced within our communities and to promote cultural understanding and empathy.
3) Partnership Building
We collaborate with like-minded organizations, community groups, and individuals to create a united front in advocating for our fellow community members.
4) Research and Evidence
We gather data, carry out research, and present evidence-based arguments to support our advocacy goals
