James Bay Community Project

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

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

We will be closed on Friday, March 29 for Good Friday and on Monday, April 1 for Easter Monday. Regular hours will resume on Tuesday, April 2, 2024.

Help seniors in your community stay connected with digital literacy skills to maintain their resiliency.
When seniors stay connected with their family, loved ones and their healthcare providers, they increase their quality of life.
