Steeles L’Amoreaux Strength in Partnership
Steeles L’Amoreaux Strength in Partnership (SSIP) is a group of organizations and residents that works to strengthen the Steeles L’Amoreaux neighbourhood and make it a better place to live. The group was formed in 2006.
Steeles L’Amoreaux is bound by Steeles Ave. E. to the north, Sheppard Ave. E. to the south, Victoria Park Ave. to the west and Kennedy Rd. to the east.
History of SSIP
SSIP started as a group called the Steeles L’Amoreaux Neighbourhood Action Partnership (SL NAP). It was formed after Steeles L’Amoreaux became a ‘priority neighbourhood’ under Toronto’s original Strong Neighbourhood Strategy in 2005. In 2013 the NAP changed its name to Steeles L’Amoreaux Strength in Partnership (SSIP) with more emphasis on being a community-driven network, SSIP began looking for more residents to get involved.
Though Steeles L’Amoreaux is no longer a ‘priority neighbourhood’ under the current Toronto Strong Neighbourhood Strategy 2020, there’s still lots of opportunity to strengthen community building.
SSIP works to
- Address community issues and challenges
- Connect residents with resources such as programs and services in the neighbourhood
- Strengthen residents' voice in shaping the community
