PART 2 – PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND DELIVERABLES 

 
2.1 COMPANY DESCRIPTION 
 
TNG Community Services Overview 


The Neighbourhood Group Community Services (TNGCS) is a longstanding social service agency that 
delivers community, anti-poverty and health programs to over 47,000 people across Toronto annually. 
Our vision is a resilient, inclusive society where opportunity, empowerment, and social and economic 
justice lead to a better quality of life for all. With more than 900 staff and the support of over 600 
volunteers, our programs and services address the most pressing issues in our society: poverty, 
homelessness, mental health, unemployment, social isolation, substance use, conflict, violence, youth 
alienation, and the settlement of newcomers. 
 
TNGCS is an amalgamation of Central Neighbourhood House (founded in 1911), Neighbourhood Link 
Support Services (founded in 1975), Kensington Bellwoods Legal Services (founded in 1982), and St. 
Stephen’s Community House (founded in 1962). We joined forces to holistically address city-wide 
issues, provide comprehensive services to our participants, and work most effectively with our funders, 
donors, volunteers, and community members to build a healthier, more vibrant Toronto. 
 
Peer Program Overview 
 
For the past 20 years, TNGCS’s peer program has supported individual development while 
strengthening the broader system by providing opportunities for skill development and meaningful 
employment. Peers are people with lived experience of homelessness, substance use, mental health 
challenges, settlement and poverty who are employed to support service users with their ability to 
relate to their struggles, build trust and deliver programs with an empathetic approach. Peers are 
typically former program participants seeking employment in a supportive and familiar environment as 
a stepping stone to long-term, permanent work. Most are hired in the programs they recently 
participated in and, therefore, have relevant personal experience with service users' day-to-day barriers 
and struggles. At TNGCS, early examples include peer workers with our perinatal newcomer program, 
peer interpreters with our women’s settlement program, and a specialized peer leadership program in 
our youth services department. 
 
Our peer program develops employability skills, improves access to good wages, strengthens mutual 
support networks of people with lived experience, and recognizes lived experience as a qualification for 
employment. The peer model at TNGCS has been replicated across departments and today we currently 
employ close to 300 peer workers on an annual basis in the following areas: Urban Health and 
Homelessness Services (UHHS), Newcomer Services, Children and Youth, Childcare, and our Food Bank. 
Crucially, we embrace the adage “nothing about us without us” by giving participants the opportunity to 
meaningfully shape and guide programs that serve their very communities – keeping our services 
relevant and suited to evolving needs. 

 
2.2 PROJECT BACKGROUND 
 
TNG Community Services has been funded by the Metcalf foundation to deliver an 18-month program 
titled Peer Pathways: Elevate to Permanent Employment will address sector-wide challenges with 


4 

peer employment. Although lived experience is recognized as a qualification for work in the non-profit sector, 
the transferability of peer roles is limited, hindering transitions to stable employment. Peers gain valuable 
work experience, but many do not possess the requisite qualifications to advance to permanent roles, even 
internally at TNGCS where we accept equivalency for educational credentials, provide training and recognize 
lived experience. This limits economic mobility and access to stable, decent work. 
 
Without shareable resources and a structured framework that supports peer advancement into permanent 
employment across sectors, our ability to scale and share a proven framework with counterparts is limited. 
We aim for our analysis to explore how peer work can best prepare people for work in a range of sectors, not 
only social services environments, and how peer employment can be universally legitimized as a qualification 
for work. We aim to explore how peer work can be better recognized and enhanced to be transferrable 
qualification for permanent employment, and to assess the viability of a resource hub that strengthens peer 
program capacity across the non-profit sector. We aspire to create equitable pathways to employment by 
enabling people with lived experience who face systemic barriers to secure meaningful work experiences that 
lead to enduring, gainful employment. 

 
The Peer Pathways: Elevate to Employment project will include: 
 • A comprehensive internal audit of TNGCS’ peer program across departments. This will include a needs 
assessment to evaluate our capacity to prepare peers for permanent employment. We will conduct 
interviews with current and past peers and a focus group and visioning session with Senior Leadership 
and program leads 
 
 • An environmental scan assessing the pre-employment capacity of peer programs across various 
organizations, including social service agencies and other sectors. As part of this scan, the Canadian peer 
certification standards and best practices will be reviewed to assess their impact on individual career 
advancement 
 
 • Feasibility study of an e-learning hub to share resources and build non-profit sector capacity to deliver 
effective peer programs 


2.3 SCOPE OF SERVICES AND KEY DELIVERABLES 
 

Key deliverables include: 
 

1. Conduct Comprehensive Internal Audit: 
o Develop audit framework and tools (interview guides, focus group protocols, etc.) in collaboration 

with TNGCS project leads 
o Conduct interviews, focus groups, questionnaires with current and former peers 
o Facilitate focus groups and visioning sessions with senior leadership and program leads 
o Data analysis: strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, threats 

2. Conduct an External Review 
o Outreach to partners and counterpart organizations 
o Review Canadian peer certification standards and other relevant literature 
o Conduct interviews/focus groups and/or send questionnaires to partners 
o Integrate findings, identify best practices, emerging programs 

3. Assess feasibility of a Learning Hub 
o Conduct stakeholder interviews (staff, other organizations, government) 
o Research existing e-learning platforms and digital content 


5 

o Identify and connect with potential partners in technology delivery 
o Analyze feasibility: cost, demand, scalability 

4. Prepare a final report with findings and key recommendations 
 

2.4 STAKEHOLDERS 
 

TNGCS anticipates that to complete the deliverables outlined in Section 2.3, the selected candidate will work 
with TNGCS Project Leads, Senior Leadership Team and program managers/leaders. The work will also require 
engagement with current and past TNGCS Peers. TNGCS has formed partnerships with many organizations that 
offer peer programs. These partnerships will be leveraged in order to conduct the external review. Project 
partners include: The Shelter Sector Pipeline Project, CAMH, UHN, Fred Victor, Inner City Health Partners, 
Parkdale Queen West Community Health Centre, St. Felix Centre, LOFT Community Services, Good Shepherd, 
Homes First, Access Alliance, Flemingdon Health, the 519, Jarvis Collegiate Institute, Westview Centennial
