Would you like to get involved?

As a volunteer, you will share, learn and grow while gaining valuable experience. Join us in a role that best suits your skills and interests such as program support, working in the toy library, at a special event or serving on a committee or the Board of Directors.

NOTE: As an organization that provides licensed childcare, Peterborough Child and Family Centre staff, students and volunteers are required to be immunized in accordance with the Child Care and Early Years Act (CCEYA) and the direction of the Medical Officer of Health. In addition a Criminal Reference/Vulnerable Sector Check is completed for safety reasons.

Board of Directors

Board Members play a key role in the governance of the organization by actively contributing to decision-making processes and providing strategic guidance and support to the Chief Executive Officer.

In this capacity, PCFC’s Board meets in person eight times annually, and each Member serves on at least one Board committee.

At PCFC, we are working to ensure our Board of Directors reflects the communities we serve. We welcome and encourage interest from individuals who are currently underrepresented on our Board, including persons with disabilities, Indigenous peoples, members of racialized communities, 2SLGBTQ+ individuals, and people living in rural communities.
