What is the Northwest Territories Community Futures Association?
In January 1999, the 6 existing Community Futures organizations of the NWT formed and incorporated the Northwest Territories Community Futures Association (NWTCFA).
The association now works on behalf of all 6 CFs in the NWT. Its primary roles are:
- to foster increased communication between CFs
- represent the CFs in a common voice
- to advocate the benefits of its members to government, non-government organizations and the general public
- facilitate the education and training of its organizations' staff and volunteer board members
- to negotiate strategic partnerships with prospective organizations on behalf of its members.
The association's goal is to improve each CF's ability to provide their clients with the services they need.
