Milton Community Resource Centre

History of Milton Community Resource Centre

MCRC is the amalgamation of two agencies in Milton: Milton Community and Information Services and Milton Children and Youth Centre . In 1998, the two agencies became one. At that time there were about 12 staff, an operating budget of $400,000 and 200 families.

In 2002, MCRC was selected to be the lead agency for the new Ontario government initiative- Ontario Early Years Centres. At that time the staff grew to 20, the operating budget  grew to  $1,500,000 and our membership grew to 700 families.

In 2003, MCRC expanded their school age programs to include Chris Hadfield Before and After School program and in 2005 Hawthorne Village School was added.

In 2006, MCRC expanded to the new Bronte Corporate  Centre at 400 Bronte Street in Milton. The building is 21,500 square feet which includes a Child Care Centre, Early Years programs, School age programs, Nursery School programs, Private Home Child Care Program and Family Resource Programs.
