The city budget process is an important opportunity for residents to engage in developing the city they want. The city budget determines what programs, services and infrastrucutre receive funding and, consequently, what the city priorities are.
Middle Childhood Matters Coalition Toronto has always viewed the budget process as the chance to prioritize children ages 6-12 - to push for more child care subsidies, to increase access to student nutrition, to add much-needed recreational spaces, and so on.
