We send What's on the MOVES on the first and third Friday of the month. Our goal is to share information about upcoming events, agency news and relevant announcements with the DC MOVES mailing list. If you have information to share through this bulletin, please email your information in text and an attached image or logo to the DC MOVES Coordinator Elaine Capes.
NEWS
 
The opposite of poverty is equity
 
You heard it at the Forum ( if you were able to joint us)
The DCPRTF is changing its name to
DCEC  - Dufferin County Equity Collaborative

Our new name reflects the move to expand  the table to include the Health network as partners  in the work and to shift the language to a positive outcome.
Our reframing,  rephrasing and reorganizing will position us to have a broader impact and that is what we want and need moving forward.  
 
We look forward to sharing the Priorities and Roadmap
