Community Conversation: Leading with Care

Organized in collaboration with Support YQG  

This panel brings together three Executive Directors from charities in the Windsor-Essex region. Bringing perspectives from diverse areas of focus, this conversation will explore how their organizations support the Windsor-Essex community, the needs they’re addressing, and how the community can support their work. 

Inspired by Support YQG’s Community in Colours community display, which explores the meaning of community support, this conversation highlights how support takes different forms depending on the unique needs of diverse individuals and communities.
