What is the Community Advancement Program (CAP)?
CAP, an initiative of Community Futures Peterborough (CFP), aims to boost business attraction, investment, retention, and employment in the City and County of Peterborough by supporting projects that:
• Create community economic stability,
growth, and job creation
• Develop and diversify competitive local
rural economies
• Foster economically sustainable communities

Aligned with CFP and the Federal Economic Development Agency for Southern Ontario (FedDev Ontario) priorities, CAP focuses on advancing economic competitiveness, promoting sustainable economic development and diversification, and creating a more equitable and inclusive economy.
