The CDC is involved in many aspects of life in our community.

The CDC also administers a Community Loan Program, intended to help small businesses (or local organizations) in our community get started or expand their operations. We also offer Settlement Services in conjunction with Westman Immigration services in Brandon, which offers settlement support to any Permanent Residents located in Cartwright, Killarney and Boissevain.
