What is Social Prosperity?
Social Prosperity is defined as a community’s ability to maintain a high quality of life and a good standard of living for its citizens. It includes ensuring that citizens have access to employment opportunities, community services, health care, adequate housing and education. Headwaters Communities in Action strives to attain social prosperity for those who work and live in Dufferin County and surrounding areas. We believe that this can be effectively achieved by attending holistically to the economic, community health and environmental well being of our communities, and by working together across sectors to focus our collective assets on areas of community priority.
