About

We are residents from the area who want to encourage involvement in our neighbourhood. We believe that we can work together to positively  influence decisions for our community.

Please contact us at interriverca@gmail.com if there’s a community issue that’s important to you or if you would like to volunteer with us – we value input from all residents who live here and we believe that many hands make light work!
