Community Visions & Networking (Quinte)

What Community Visions & Networking (Quinte) does

Community Visions & Networking (Quinte) is a small registered non-profit organization headquartered in Belleville, Ontario, that delivers a portfolio of person-directed support services to adults with intellectual disabilities living in the Quinte Region. Its service lines span individualized planning (Person Directed Planning), in-community accompaniment (One on One Supports), supported housing (Sustainable Homes), and social/recreational inclusion (CVNQuinte Adventures, Creative Connections), positioning it as a multi-disciplinary local provider rather than a single-program agency.

The organization is funded predominantly through a transfer-payment relationship with Ontario's Ministry of Children, Community & Social Services (MCCSS), the provincial ministry that sets the regulatory and funding framework for adult developmental services in the province. Supplemental revenue is raised through direct-donation campaigns, most recently the "Services with a Twist 2026 Campaign" conducted via the Zeffy online giving platform. A partnership with PassportONE extends the organization's reach into participants whose supports are funded through the provincial Passport program. The organization operates with a headcount of approximately 18 employees under Executive Director Terri Korkush.

Operating governance is structured around a published 2023-2028 Strategic Plan that defines the multi-year service and organizational agenda, including MCCSS compliance oversight (with a compliance review noted in 2025). There is no disclosed technology product, proprietary software platform, or digital revenue stream; the value proposition is delivered through direct human support in the participant's home, community, and program settings, with off-the-shelf tooling used only for fundraising and case-management plumbing. The business model is therefore best characterized as a publicly funded fee-for-service non-profit, with grant-top-up fundraising as a secondary lever.
