A Message to All of Us from the Niagara Poverty Reduction Network
Posted March 19th, 2026 on Niagara At Large
Niagara, Ontario – Community members can play an important role in shaping public policy. Writing to elected officials helps decision-makers understand how policies affect real neighbourhoods and the people who live there. You do not need to be an expert.
Your perspective as a community member matters!

Working together to reduce poverty and strengthen our community.
