and the developed Local Settlement Strategy for the Clairlea-Birchmount, Oakridge, Birchcliffe-Cliffside, Cliffcrest and Kennedy Park neighbourhoods reflects the input of many stakeholders over the past 14 months. Our stakeholders were comprised of a diverse list of settlement service providers, public school board members, and health and city representatives who shared their expertise and experiences in realising this project. For this I would like to sincerely acknowledge them in their shared passion and commitment of working to create a welcoming community for newcomers. First, I would like to sincerely thank Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC) for providing the financial support for the development of this document. This support provides a forum for immigrants, service providers and businesses to broaden our understanding of the significant contributions, experiences and expertise in our neighbourhoods. We greatly appreciate the opportunity and support by CIC to research, dialogue and plan recommendations that reflect the realities of newcomers in our neighbourhoods. Secondly, I would like to thank members of the Southwest Scarborough Partnership Council, who have devoted their time throughout the past 14 months. Thank you for sharing your knowledge, ideas and resources, through meetings, surveys and outreach. Most of all though, I would like to thank you for your enthusiasm and commitment to improving the lives of newcomers in a true spirit of partnership and collaboration. Thirdly,

This Environmental Assessment (EA) is being conducted by Toronto and Region Conservation Authority (TRCA) and is aimed at creating a new waterfront park along the Lake Ontario shoreline from Bluffers Park to East Point Park in the City of Toronto. The goal is to create a destination park featuring a system of linked scenic landscapes both along the top of the bluffs and at the water’s edge integrating shoreline regeneration, public access and safety, and natural heritage. The study area is located on Lots 18 to 27 Concession B, Lots 11 to 23 Concession C, and Lots 3 to 17 Concession D in historic Scarborough Township, York County. The objectives of this study are to provide information about the property’s geography, history, previous archaeological fieldwork and current land conditions in order to evaluate the property’s potential to contain cultural heritage resources that might be impacted by the modifications proposed in the EA.

  • Child & Family Inequities Score
    CHILD & FAMILY INEQUITIES SCORE Technical Report The Child & Family Inequities Score provides a neighbourhood-level measure of the socio-economic challenges that children and families experience. The Child & Family Inequities Score is a tool to help explain the variation in socio-economic status across the City of Toronto neighbourhoods. It will help service providers to understand the context of the neighbourhoods and communities that they serve. It will also help policy makers and researchers understand spatial inequities in child and family outcomes. While other composite measures of socio-economic status in the City exist, the Child & Family Inequities Score is unique because it uses indicators that are specific to families with children under the age of 12. The Child & Family Inequities Score is a summary measure derived from indicators which describe inequities experienced by the child and family population in each of Toronto’s 140 neighbourhoods. The Child & Family Inequities Score is comprised of 5 indicators: • Low Income Measure: Percent of families with an after-tax family income that falls below the Low Income Measure. • Parental Unemployment: Percent of families with at least one unemployed parent / caregiver. • Low Parental Education: Percent of families with at least one parent / caregiver that does not have a high school diploma. • No Knowledge of Official Language: Percent of families with no parents who have knowledge of either official language (English or French). 1 • Core Housing Need: Percent of families in core housing need . This report provides technical details on how the Child & Family Inequities Score was created and describes how the resulting score should be interpreted.
