CCD is a multi-service registered charitable organization providing a broad range of support services for individuals over the age of 16 and their caregivers.
Please consider joining our team of volunteers as we continue in our mission of “Supporting People, Strengthening Community.”
Volunteers are the heart and soul of Community Care Durham (CCD).
Without the commitment and dedication of volunteers, CCD would not be able to provide our clients with the broad range of services and supports that enable them to live safely at home. Volunteers make a difference, whether it is a few hours a week or a few hours a month.
