Message from the President & Executive Director

As we reflect on the successes and challenges faced by Brampton Caledon Community Living (BCCL)
this past year, it is refreshing to finally feel like we are moving forward after three long years
of closures, restrictions, and much uncertainty. We are tremendously grateful to people supported
for their resilience, employees for their dedication and family members for their patience.

BCCL has had many successes this past year. A quarterly newsletter was created to spread some joy
and stay connected. More in-person day support and respite programs opened. Some day support
initiatives were redesigned to provide more choice. A new home in Caledon opened in response to
residential expansion. BCCL successfully recruited 70 qualified employees this past fiscal year to
replenish vacancies created during the pandemic. The Self-advocates committee regained momentum and
many other in-person activities also resumed. Important improvements were made to the information
technology infrastructure to strengthen cyber security and enhance internal efficiencies.
The 2022-2023 fiscal year ended with BCCL once again coming in with a balanced budget.

However, we recognize that there is still much work to be done. The pandemic has highlighted the
urgent need for increased funding and resources to support vulnerable individuals and their
families. As we move forward into the next fiscal year, we will continue to advocate for these
critical resources and work to strengthen our partnerships with local government and community
organizations.

The board and management reviewed the strategic plan and remain focused in some key areas as we
recover from the aftermath of the pandemic. We are fortunate to have incredible employees and are
honoured once again to come together in person to celebrate with this year’s recipients at the
Annual General Meeting. We value the dedication and hard work of all BCCL employees. We are pleased
to report that BCCL and CUPE negotiated a 4-year collective agreement in March 2023.

We would like to take this opportunity to thank all the families and people supported by BCCL for
their understanding and patience this past year. We are thankful and appreciate all of our
hard-working employees who are dedicated to making a difference in people’s lives. Lastly, thank
you to our funders, donors, members, volunteers, and partners in the community for your
contributions and for your continued support. We look forward to continuing our work together in
the coming year as we strive to create a more inclusive and supportive community for people who
have an intellectual disability.
Carmen Baker, President and Anne-Marie Hawkins, Executive Director
