Our members

OCYI brings together cross-sector organizational partners committed to improving outcomes for children, youth, and families in Ottawa. Membership is open to organizations and networks that align with OCYI’s vision, mission, values, and strategic priorities, and that are committed to working collaboratively to influence systems, services, and community outcomes.

OCYI Task Groups work with members and other sector partners to identify and map programs, services, and supports relevant to children, youth, and families. This helps build a clearer picture of the community landscape, strengthen relationships across sectors, identify gaps and opportunities, and support greater coordination and collaboration.

Roles and Responsibilities
Active participation by member organizations is essential to OCYI’s collective work. Members are encouraged to identify representatives for relevant Task Groups, support cross-sector collaboration, bring an equity and community voice lens to participation, share relevant opportunities and resources, and contribute knowledge that strengthens coordination and shared learning across the network.
