Vibrant Communities Calgary (VCC) is the backbone organization to a collective impact initiative in Calgary, Alberta. The mandate of VCC is to be a steward of Enough for All, Calgary’s poverty reduction strategy. The advancement of policy is a key component of VCC’s role as a backbone, and it is with this role in mind that VCC has decided to produce another report, collating statistics that reflect the incidence of low income in the Calgary Census Metropolitan area, or CMA.
