About Albion Neighbourhood Services
Back in the 1960s, northern Etobicoke was rapidly changing from a rural area to a suburb. In the space of just a few years thousands of new inexpensive houses became home to young working class families. A number of subsidized housing developments were also constructed in the area during the same period. However, planning officials did not consider the social support services that these new families would need. Today, our nursery schools, social clubs, public transportation and voluntary helping agencies are taken for granted. Thirty years ago services like these were almost non-existent.
