ECE Professional Resource Centre

Welcome to the ECE Professional Resource Centre and Strive Online!

We are pleased to announce that Strive is now the lead operator of the ECE Resource Centre located at Childreach.

Strive is a collaborative group of Child Care and Early Years Professionals who support learning and development in order to enhance quality practice. While our focus is on ECEC professionals, the Resource Centre remains open and available to families.

All lending, including the Toy Lending Library, will be localized to the upstairs Resource Centre area in the Childreach Building. Our resource centre team is available during operating hours to help you navigate, browse, and borrow both resources and toys.

Strive Online houses the online-exclusive resources previously found on the Strive website Members Area.

For any questions, or for assistance with registration and access, please email resourcecentre@striveswo.ca or call the Resource Centre Team during operating hours at 519-434-3644 ext. 602
