    Grand Bend Area Vital Signs® is a community check-up conducted by community foundations across Canada that measures the vitality of our communities and identifies significant trends in areas critical to quality of life. Vital Signs® is coordinated nationally by Community Foundations of Canada. Community Check-Up 2019 The communities that Grand Bend Community Foundation serves are strong, vibrant, and full of potential. The Foundation supports organizations that are making our communities even better. To do that well, we need to understand the needs, gaps and challenges. This report gathers data from a variety of sources including Statistics Canada, local health units, United Way, and the Connected Rural Communities Collaborative led by the Grand Bend Area Community Health Centre. The report also includes comments from community leaders about the needs they see. This is just a starting point – a handful of data and perspectives that we hope will frame useful discussions in the future. If you’d like to be part of these discussions, please let us know by contacting Pat Morden at [email protected]. “A significant factor in this area is the lack of reasonable graduated care for people in their senior years. Because of the lack of support, people who need a small amount of support to thrive at home get almost none and carry on with consequent detriments to health, nutrition, mobility and socialization, until often a calamity causes a precipitous exit to another community. ” Rev.

Cheskey May 2001 Executive Summary Port Franks Forested Dunes Important Bird Area is a continuous stretch of unique forest habitat along the southern coast of Lake Huron, from Kettle Point to Grand Bend. It is an exceptional area biologically, with globally rare and threatened habitats. Two species of nationally rare and threatened birds, Hooded Warbler and Acadian Flycatcher, breed in the IBA along with an amazing diversity of woodland species, many of which are regionally and provincially significant.

Two large tracts of land under the jurisdiction of the Kettle- Stoney Point First Nations are also part of the continuous forest habitat. Threats to the IBA include: • Housing development • Recreational overuse • Dune erosion • Over-browsing from deer • Diversion of water and canalization The Action Plan component of this conservation plan includes the following vision and goals. Objectives and strategies supporting the goals are presented in Chapter 11. Vision The Port Franks Forested Dunes IBA will promote, conserve and enhance continuous natural forest cover from Kettle Point to Grand Bend to support viable populations of forest birds and habitat for migrant birds.
