- What is the main goal for this project?
-
We are a Montreal-based community-building & co-living platform with features and a culture that facilitate and deepen in-person safe connections for families, especially single parents and newcomers feeling burned out and alone, where they can give and receive trusted and reliable family-like support, fostering a real sense of belonging . . . one neighbourhood at a time. We are a social enterprise, both online and in-person, in collaboration with Concordia University's D3 Innovation Hub. We wish to facilitate healthy, resilient, sustainable living between families and take the guesswork out of community building.
We presently have a pilot of 300 families in a closed Facebook group and are now ready to transition off of that platform onto our own online community and App that we aim to soft launch an MVP imminently.
We are a small team for the moment, yet with every team we work with, we will have regular check-ins with goal setting and sprints to keep us all motivated and moving forward. For us creating an inclusive and healthy working community where we can all show up as our full selves and feel supported is a big part of our business model.
The students will have the support of our Project Manager who is responsible for scrums, questions and resource material, and our Lead Senior Developer who overlooks and reviews all code before being pushed into our main. We have a set of protocols that the students will follow.
- What tasks will learners need to complete to achieve the project goal?

As indicated in our project goals, we are poised to soft launch our MVP. We would love to have consultation regarding cyber security and in the least work around

- How will you support learners in completing the project?
-
We have worked with about 27 cohorts and have become seasoned supervisors to achieve a win-win-win situation for students, schools and our project. As community-builders ourselves, we wish to cultivate that very spirit within our collaborations and internal culture. We generally run weekly scrums and sprints with clearly defined objectives and we are always available on Slack to answer questions. Teams that we work with will get Discovery Material beforehand so that they know what we are about, where we are and access to the various tools that we use (ie. Slack, GitHub, etc.)
- What skills or technologies will help learners to complete the project?

We are a social enterprise, both online and on the ground, in collaboration with D3 and the Refinery. We’re creating an online p2p community marketplace for medium to long term FAMILY-LIKE community building, where parents, especially single mothers... feeling burned out and alone... can access, trusted and reliable community-help they need by either podding up together or co-live together. Our goal is to facilitate the families in the matching process (AI) with other families so they can find support and belonging, and to empower families by bringing them together and facilitate healthy, resilient, sustainable living between them.
We presently have a pilot of 300 families in a closed FB group, ready to transition onto our own platform and App. We are always looking to collaborate with passionate people who are into social impact and are mission driven. We are eager to work with those that have the sensibilities and broad skillset germane to this kind of community initiative
