Community Associations can be found all over Ottawa and in over 40 different regions. With very active members contributing to their respective associations. The general mission is to improve neighbourhood life and to stay connected. They are aware of events and current issues within a specific region of the city. Community Associations are run by dedicated volunteers who share a common mandate. To provide programs, services and communications to neighbours and residents.

The volunteer residents organize charitable events, socials, and fundraisers.
