Northbrae Early Years Centre and Neighbourhood Hub

Northbrae Early Years Centre and Neighbourhood Hub

In a July 14th, 2008 Report to the Community and Protective Services Committee, Neighbourhood and Children Services Pegged the Completion Date of the Northbrae Hub at December 2008. No Opening Date is given.

The report goes on to state the following:

"The Northbrae hub will provide a core, minimum set of services including neighbourhood services for children ages 0 to grade 8 and their parents and families. This will be a partnership between the City of London, The Thames Valley District School Board and YMCA Child Care Services, with the YMCA being the lead agency for service co-ordination.

Northbrae Early Years Hub

 

"In June 2008 a Request for Proposal to operate the Northbrae/Kipps Lane Neighbourhood Hub was awarded to the YMCA of Western Ontario (London) in affiliation with a significant number of service providers which include The Boys’ and Girls Club of London, Children’s Aid Society of Lordon and Middlesex, The City of London, Family Networks, London Urban Services Organization (LUSO), Merrymount Children’s Centre, Middlesex London Health Unit and Pathways. "

 

"This unique community collaboration will assist citizens in Kipps Lane through the provision of services focused on children and families in their neighbourhood. "

 

It seems grossly unfair that Kipps Lane is the only recipient of these services when the NEARBY Huron Boullee London Housing complexes are also in such dire need. In fact, a resident of the Huron Complex made that very point strenuously to Lynn Livingstone, Director of Neighbourhood & Childrens Services at a Community Meeting held on July 25th, 2008. 

 

It should be noted that this Neighbourhood "Hub" and Day Care were already well into the planning stages before the Kipps Lane Initiative was ever announced. The KLI and the Northbrae Neighbourhood Hub have nothing to do with each other. In fact, the original mandate of the KLI was for 18 months and should have run out at the end of this month.

 

 

 

The KLI should not be extended and its report should simply be tabled at CPSC for the use of Neighbourhood and Childrens Services. The KLI has run out of time and the $180,000 it will spend this year on this initiative should not be renewed in 2009. With this Hub it is clear that more than enough money has been thrown at Kipps Lane with little results to show for it.
