The SSCPN is a volunteer community grouping of local organization and individuals. We provide information about support services on the South Shore. Many of our community members and community contacts provide the volunteer services. Our role is to offer them support, promotion, encouragement, contacts, and often direction. We do provide certain direct services such as links to government programs and information. We produce community information pamphlets, provide media contacts, help in completing government forms and income tax reports . The major part of our budget is in kind: We have no paid staff and services we provided are often completed by volunteers. Through direct contacts The SSCPN is often viewed as a link into the English Speaking community and is called act (dare I say) as an unofficial voice for the community. Increasing we are looking and developing contacts with the growing multi-cultural community on the South Shore who also speak English as their first official language.
