OUR VISION
“Empowering The Community To Overcome Barriers”
OUR MISSION
Our mission is to address the integration, education, health, housing, social
services, culture, and economic development of African Canadians and other immigrants in Canada through programs, services, and advocacy.
WHAT IS OCDC?
OCDC is a bilingual non-profit organization founded with the mission of impacting the lives of immigrants from Africa and the Caribbean. The organization has been working to provide educational, social, youth, and senior services to BIPOC residents of the Peel Region and GTA at large.
OCDC offers services in both English and French that address the integration, education, health, shelter, and economic development of African immigrants in Canada through programs, services and advocacy.
Through our work and the support of our volunteers, OCDC has been able to expand its services and the population in which we serve. The organization continues to expand its reach and meet the needs of our community. Our dedication to diversity, equity, and inclusion is vital to empowering our community to reach new heights.
