Hastings Community Association Presentation:

Following the PAC meeting Lisa Patterson gave a presentation to inform parents of the changes that are currently being undertaken by the City and Parks Board which will have an impact on the way in which community centres in Vancouver are run. The Hastings Community Center board has significant concerns that by centralizing the community center model of operation will not lend itself to the community centre being able to serve the Hastings community in the same way that is has to date. The changes would mean that the community centre would not control over funds raised by the center and would not be able to carry fund from year to year. As well there is concern that they would not have control to choose what programs are offered and things like the parent drop in and pre-school maybe significantly impacted, particularly because some of these programs are subsidized in order to keep them going. The Hasting Community Centre is currently trying to inform the neighbourhood of the changes and would possibly request that a letter of support for the Community Centre Association be considered by the PAC.

her aim is to create a parent space in the school as a place for parents to “hang out” and interact or to work in school initiatives

School will be accommodating a high needs child and when space no longer needed after child integrated into class room, an opportunity to take this over as a parent space will exist.
