Community Care Centre The Community Care Centre (CCC) is a community health and wellness safe(r) space. Through peer supports and equitybased programming, we strengthen students to live their whole selves with dignity. The CCC recognizes the importance of making connections through lived experiences. It is a place for all students – students who care about social justice and each other. Prioritizing those who traditionally face barriers to care: Examples of past and ongoing groups: • Black students’ group • First Nations, Inuit, Métis students’ group Casa Loma • Disabilities students’ group E Building, First floor, • International and Racialized students’ group Room E124 • LGBTQ students’ group 142 Kendal Ave • Women & Trans students’ group. The CCC is unique in its offerings – including spaces that are simultaneously vibrant and chill. And when you can’t visit the St. James physical spaces – we’ve crafted ways to mail our offerings through A Building, themed care kits. Across history, equity communities have innovated Room 165B ways to look out for each other and survive – together and now we 200 King St E do the same – supporting each other through shared struggles. The Community Care Centre focuses on health programming such as consent, sexual health education, community Waterfront health resources/supplies, and harm reduction. The Community Care Centre works in collaboration with Concourse level, community health centres, facilitating health strategies Room 031C that impact students using a culturally competent lens. 51 Dockside Dr We develop strategies on long-standing health priorities, as well as current health trends impacting students.
