Project Summary
2025 marks the 50th anniversary of the James Bay Community Project (JBCP)—a meaningful milestone and the perfect moment to introduce a new online portal, a forward-thinking, user-focused online portal that will serve as a centralized hub for community services across James Bay.
This platform will increase public awareness, improve accessibility, and spotlight the collaborative spirit of James Bay’s diverse service organizations. By streamlining information, reducing duplication, and fostering stronger connections between providers and residents, the new online platform will become both a practical tool and a powerful symbol of the community’s shared commitment to care.
