Strategic Plan
The George Hull Centre is committed to providing quality service and space for both clients and employees to thrive.
The George Hull Centre regards each child as an individual, a member of a family and a member of the community. We work in partnership with families and children, with other community services and with community groups to improve the mental health of the children and youth of Toronto.
The Centre works to develop an accessible, flexible and responsive continuum of service delivery for the community, and to provide specialized services for the Greater Toronto Area, as mandated.
A commitment to gender equality, cultural sensitivity and accessible economic opportunities provides an organizing framework to the philosophy of the Centre. The Centre takes into account imbalances of power as they exist in the culture and as they affect the lives of children, and advocates accordingly on behalf of marginalized groups.
