Title
The Holland Centre Experience : A Community Development Model for Minorities
Abstract
The Holland Centre is a partnership of four public organisations and one private non-profit community organisation that has been successful in creating culturally-appropriate health and social services for a minority community in the province of Quebec, Canada. In June 1999 the J.W. McConnell Foundation awarded a grant to the Holland Centre that allowed it the time and resources necessary to analyse the elements of the centre’s success and develop the tools necessary to assist other linguistic minority communities to develop essential services.
