Core Activities

The SPC acts as a mirror, reflecting social realities in Oxford County back to local decision makers and residents. Core activities comprise cycles of building evidence and encouraging action for progressive social change as follows:

• Timely identification of targeted social issues and opportunities related to poverty and marginalization
• Gathering of reliable information on those issues, with an emphasis on local data and unheard voices
• Analysis of the relevance of that evidence to residents of Oxford County
• Clear and compelling communication of the resulting messages to leaders in the County
• Mobilization of coordinated action to make a positive impact on social and economic wellbeing
