Engaging people to build social relationships within the community.

Community engagement is at the forefront of ACSA's mission. We currently have three programs that run from community sites and directly service individuals, groups and families in high priority neighborhoods.

Testimonials from Community Members

"The Corner gets me up and going in doing different things. Some enjoyable things to join are the cooking club, youth council, and the young women's program. It's a part of the "hood" which means you should enjoy that part of your "hood". The Corner means everything to me."

"There are lots of Programs going on in a small place. I am very happy to have this center because our children get involve in programs. The kids love the Corner and they don't want to miss a day not visiting it. We need a bigger space for more programs."

"I came to Canada for many years but always feel lonely and isolated. Since coming to the Chester Le Community Corner my life has been changed. I took ESL classes, improved my English and now I'm able to have conversation with some people. I also joined the Community Garden program, have grown my favorite vegetables, met new people, and got to know different cultures."
