In this paper, we present the gaps and the challenges faced by literacy programs, services and organizations in Peterborough. This research found that the lack of funding for literacy services was a major gap faced by the majority of the participants.

The study aimed to create a survey instrument, Spaces of Racism, and to test it on a sample audience. The study was based on Trent, Peterborough and Canada's official stance on multiculturalism.

The report discusses an evaluation of the training program used for the Natural Blends Cafe. It was requested by the management staff in order to ascertain how the training program had impacted the lives of the participants.

This aim of this evaluation is to help PARN asses their work and the effectiveness of their programs. The evaluation will give insight into areas that they could improve and better serve their clients.

At the request of the Kawartha Sexual Assault Centre (KSAC), this report was completed to evaluate diversity among the Centre's pool of volunteers. After deciding on a set of categories (race, culture, language, age, sexual orientation, physical disability, religion and class) as a definition of 'diversity' the authors of this report carried out research at KSAC and the larger Peterborough community through both interviews and surveys.

The report "Assessing Community Awareness" purpose is to assess the awareness of, and attitudes towards the United Way (UW) and its role in Peterborough City and County.
