Everyone deserves equal access to quality, affordable community services and facilities in their neighbourhood. The community services sector and grassroots groups are struggling to access the resources and space their communities need while the City is selling public land that should be serving community priorities. City resources should be used for community good such as housing, reparations to Indigenous communities, growing and distributing food, and expanding access to recreational and community programs and spaces.

• Create more free spaces in city-run recreation programs and ensure they are available to local children and adults who need them. 
• Ensure geographic equity for community centres across the city by prioritizing building new community centres in neighbourhoods with the least access.
• Expand access to critical amenities and places of respite in public parks, including washrooms and water fountains, across the city and in all seasons.
• Boldly invest in the expansion of nonprofit child care centres and actively work towards a publicly-funded, licensed, universal child care system.
• Support resident groups and the community sector with adequate space, facilities, and funding to respond to emerging community needs.
• Increase opportunities for communities to grow, sell and distribute food their communities need and want.
• Work with the community sector to update Toronto’s Food Charter to improve food system resilience and local food security while decreasing environmental impact.
• Keep public lands, assets, and space public in perpetuity.
