Ontario’s Inclusive Community Grants Program (ICGP) helps ensure local governments and community organizations consider Ontarians of all ages and abilities at every stage of community planning and development. Inclusive communities respond to both the opportunities and challenges of an aging population by:
- creating physical and social environments that support independent and active living
- enabling older adults and people with disabilities to continue contributing to all aspects of community life
The $2 million grant program offers funding over two years for short and long-term projects that take place between February 2020 and March 2022.
