Peel Community Benefits Network

The Peel Community Benefits Network (PCBN) was born from an initiative of the Peel Poverty Reduction Strategy Committee (PPRSC), which is co-chaired by the Region of Peel and United Way Greater Toronto.

Our mandate is to:

  • Ensure that residents benefit from the economic opportunities that large infrastructure projects, like the Hurontario Light Rail Transit (HuLRT), will bring to the community
  • Actively engage stakeholders from business and non-profit organizations, the community, school boards, labour unions, etc. to create inclusive Community Benefit frameworks
