Who We Are.
Durham Family and Cultural Centre is a non-profit organization, established in February 2019. DFCC is a Durham-based organization that provides a space for members of the Black community, and other racialized and diverse groups to engage in programming that empowers their lives.
We are the only organization of its kind in the Durham region established to meet the social and culturally specific needs of this growing population.
Our mission is achieved through culturally focused programs such as counselling, parenting, education, mentorship, and child and youth development programs.
DFCC is governed by volunteer board members that represent the diverse make-up of the Black-Canadian population, including parents/caregivers and working professionals.
We are committed to helping meet the needs of our community.
