"NEW STARS OF THE PEACE"

The Community Village is a strategic co-location of cooperative social agencies and services designed to provide a respectful environment where marginalized people can access the resources of social purpose agencies and businesses within one location.

We serve a broad clientelle with a strong focus on those who find it difficult to access mainstream programming, including aboriginals, the homeless, low-income families, those with addiction issues, sex trade workers, immigrants, those new to the community and at-risk youth.

The Community Village is located in the heart of the community of downtown Grande Prairie. The site includes over 21,000 sq. ft in three buildings, 4 lots of green space, over 90 parking stalls and a courtyard that connects the entire site, making it a community unto itself.
