Providing Essential services to the vulnerable Community members in needs

We have distributed culture respected food items, meals and Personal Protective Kits to over 5000 new immigrants, seniors, international students, disabled youth and other youth in the African Caribbean community since the beginning of the pandemic in March 2020. Empowering the Black African Caribbean community is our top priority, hence we have adjusted our service delivery to meet our members as they are affected in one way or another by the pandemic (in terms of limited  movements, access to culture respect food), by moving  many of our community outreach programs to the virtual space. We have been holding meetings with our groups to educate and train them on how our services will be delivered and how to use the Personal Protective Equipment that will be supplied to them.
