About CEE:
CEE Centre for Young Black Professionals (CEE) is dedicated to addressing economic issues affecting Black youth. As a rapidly growing B3 (Black-focused, Black-led, and Black-serving group) organization, CEE Centre for Young Black Professionals plays a critical role in lifting up each Black youth by providing opportunities and resources they deserve. Our vision is to help Black youth who face multiple barriers achieve financial stability for themselves and their families, helping to strengthen the communities in which they live.
Our mission is to increase economic opportunities for Black youth living in Toronto’s priority neighbourhoods, supporting them in the areas of employability, social enterprise, and entrepreneurship. CEE works to ensure that our programming reaches and is accessible to youth who face multiple barriers, such as unemployment, underemployment, conflict with the law, being young parents, poverty, and lack of secondary or post-secondary education. www.ceetoronto.org.
