York Region continues to experience rapid population growth, increasing poverty, and rising affordability pressures, creating community needs that are outpacing available provincial funding. The recently released York Region Underfunding Study highlights these challenges and provides recommendations to help address funding gaps across essential community services.

The committee brought together community organizations and elected officials to contribute local expertise and perspectives to inform recommendations presented to Regional Council.
