Executive Members...

The 12 member board is made up of 11 members of the North Durham Social Development Council elected at the annual general meeting plus the immediate past president.

The current board includes staff from Durham College , Region of Durham Social Services , Region Of Durham Health Department and community citizens. Past board members have been from Distress Centre Durham, Community Care, Pinewood Centre, Handi Transit among others.

The NDSDC Executive meets 8 – 10 times per year. Often subcommittees have been struck to work together on ventures that required some focused efforts to achieve solutions. Homelessness and Mental Health are a few that remain currently active. Transportation has been likely the longest focused area of discussion by the NDSDC.

Welcome to the North Durham Social Development Council

Mission:

The North Durham Social Development Council addresses the social needs of the residents of Brock, Scugog and Uxbridge Townships by facilitating a response

Vision:

The vision of the NDSDC is to be an organization that increases the awareness of available services to residents in North Durham by networking and collaborating with service providers and establishing partnerships and sharing of resources.

History:

North Durham Social Development Council has been very active since 1990. In the fall of 1990 and spring of 1991, staff from Durham Family Service and Probation Parole created the first bylaws and Constitution.

That effort was joined by a local MPP, Larry O’Connor to create a directory of Human Services in a joint effort to provide a listing of all current service providers.

Since that time, the NDSDC has continued to provide networking and educational opportunities to service providers and community members of North Durham.

This website is our newest project to facilitate networking and awareness in North Durham and was funded by a grant from South Lake Community Futures Development Corporation.
