People

CCBR has benefited from the commitment and creativity of the many people who have worked and volunteered on projects over the past four decades. For each project we build a dedicated team that may include CCBR staff, community researchers, and students.  Staff and students live and work across a number or regions including the Waterloo Region, Toronto, Guelph, Hamilton and the Greater Toronto Area.

Students, Volunteers, and Community Researchers 

CCBR welcomes interns, placement students and volunteers to contribute to our work and learn practical skills in community-based research.  Involving interns, student placements, and volunteers demonstrates CCBR’s commitment to education – providing valuable learning experiences for people who have an interest in and desire to learn about community-based research. 
Involving community researchers demonstrates CCBR's commitment to social justice – providing employment and training to people at the heart of the matter and connecting them with a networ­k of community-based researchers.

In previous years, CCBR hired an individual with an interest in being engaged in community-based research through the Theron Kramer Internship Fund. CCBR and the Community Research Ethics Office (CREO) established this internship in memory of Theron Kramer who was a CCBR board chair, community researcher, and CREO's co-chair for many years. The internship was designed for people who did not necessarily have previous work experience in this field or formal post secondary education.
