Building A Strong Partnership With The Not-for-profit Sector

Ontario is working with the not-for-profit sector to better support organizations that help Ontarians maintain a high quality of life.  The province will develop a comprehensive and long term strategic action plan for its partnership with the not-for-profit sector. 

This initiative will be a first-of-a-kind approach for Ontario and will lead to recommendations to support the not-for-profit sector. In collaboration with the Ontario Trillium Foundation, the government will conduct a series of discussions with the not-for profit, private and public sectors on how to make government more responsive to not-for-profit and volunteer organizations. This will help inform new ways to strengthen the sector, as part of the province's five-year Open Ontario plan.

Led by Ontario Citizenship and Immigration Minister Dr. Eric Hoskins and Ontario Trillium Foundation Chair Helen Burstyn, the province-wide discussions will include:

• Reviewing the structural and legislative framework within which Ontario's not-for-profit sector operates.
• Exploring how to better coordinate the government's approach to the sector.
• Researching models of government-not-for-profit sector partnerships in other jurisdictions.

A report outlining the research results and offering concrete recommendations will be completed in Winter 2010.
