CACD fervently seeks to ensure that youth in our communities are empowered to harness their full potential, live healthy lives, and develop into safe, self-reliant, and impactful citizens and leaders.

CACD endeavours to positively engage, educate and inspire BIPOC youth in Mississauga and neighbouring areas to create opportunities that maximize community influence and help them achieve established goals.

At heart, we ensure that CACD provides effective programs and services to youth for character and skills development, leadership, and active citizenship. We establish that their voices and opinions are essential, considered, and heard. We stress that they are a vital, integral part of their community.
