Learn more about the Community Development Committee

The current structure of the Chukuni Communities Development Corporation (CCDC) was established in 1995 through the amalgamation of the Chukuni Community Futures Corporation, which began operation in 1988 and the Chukuni Business Development Corporation, which was formed in 1989.  Chukuni Communities Development Corporation is incorporated as a not for profit organization and is funded by FedNor/Industry Canada through contributions to an operating fund.  In 1998, CCDC expanded and formed an Economic Development Committee, after the Red Lake/Golden Economic Corporation ceased to function, which transitioned into a Community Development Committee at the beginning of 2008. 

 

The Community Development Committee aims to improve the community’s quality of life and to play a role in consciously planning the evolution of community well-being.  The Community Development Committee will strive to bring community members and organizations together to take collective action and generate solutions to common community problems.  The Community Development Committee values community input, mutual benefit and shared responsibility in community development initiatives and recognizes that economic, social, environmental and cultural matters are all aspects of community development.

 

The Chukuni Communities Development Corporation has one central location in Red Lake at 137 Howey Street.  The Corporation’s catchment area includes the Municipality of Red Lake and the Township of Ear Falls.
