Building Community Prosperity: CCVO 2021 Alberta Pre-Budget Submission

The pandemic has shown that nonprofits and charities, governments, and businesses can respond quickly in times of emergency and provide support for communities – and working in collaboration with one another is more effective.

CCVO believes it’s imperative that all sectors continue working together through shared responsibility and ownership over a Community Prosperity Strategy, and the provincial government has an important opportunity to play a pivotal role in supporting community prosperity by committing to a Social Infrastructure Fund.  

CCVO has released their 2021 Alberta pre-budget submission, highlighting the importance of a Community Prosperity Strategy and detailing the positive impacts of a Social Infrastructure Fund, which include economic growth and job creation, and social benefits such as gender equality and a high quality of life for Albertans.
