The Collective Impact project is a four-year strategy to work with the City of Niagara Falls and our 12 communities across Niagara to develop system-wide solutions for youth as they build and act upon plans for their future and the jobs of tomorrow. Since 2016, Spark Niagara has collaborated with colleagues in Canada, the United States, and internationally as a co-catalyst in advancing the Collective Impact idea as a framework for community innovation and change.
