Dufferin County at work to improve social services for residents
April 13, 2016 · 0 Comments
–The County and HCIA are partnering to host the future DC Moves forums. They invite the executive directors, program leads, or alternates from human service agencies in Dufferin to participate and provide input.
In issuing the invitation to last week’s forum, the agencies noted, “More than ever it is necessary for human services providers to work closely together, increase their understanding of one another, and be better connected in order to enhance service systems management within the County. This first meeting will be a facilitated interactive and information gathering event to start collaboratively setting directions for future sessions and actions.”
