James Bay Community Project

James Bay Community Project is a non-profit community organization helping seniors, youth and families by providing counselling services, community support and volunteer services.

JBCP shares its building with several tenants providing services to the community: JBUPCC (Urgent and Primary Care Centre), LifeLabs, HerWay Home, and other independent providers of health services.

YOU + Generosity x Selflessness = Kindness

* IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENTS *

Our volunteers work in partnership with Canada Revenue Agency to provide the Community Volunteer Income Tax Program. It is limited to those with a lower income and who have a simple tax return. 

This program runs annually in the spring. This year the clinic will run March 1 to April 28, 2023. More info to come soon! 

Digital Dive-In is our FREE tech education program for seniors to help them learn how to use portable technology (smart phones, tablets or laptops) and build up computer literacy to help stay in touch with family & friends, maintain independence and more.
