CCBR typically has 15-20 ongoing projects and has completed over 500 projects since 1982. Each project is guided by our commitment to impacting social change in practical and powerful ways.

CCBR supported Food Banks Canada in strengthening its capacity to meaningfully, equitably, ethically, and sustainably design and facilitate a Community Advisory Committee (CAC) to support evaluation, program design, research, and advocacy efforts.
This work focused on helping Food Banks Canada explore the purpose and structure of a CAC, including goal setting, facilitation approaches, recruitment and membership processes, and compensation practices.
Particular attention was given to equitable and accessible engagement strategies that meaningfully foregrounded lived experience in the design and ongoing operation of the committee.
Through this project, Food Banks Canada built its internal capacity to navigate challenges, facilitate collaborative learning, and use community
advisory processes to support ongoing organizational improvement. At the same time Food Banks Canada was able to lean on CCBR’s depth of expertise in CAC development, facilitation, and administration for guidance, trouble-shooting, and vision-setting.
