Joe Mancini and Stephanie Mancini
Describes the evolution of Working Centre philosophy where social inclusion and local democracy have helped people shape the tools they use in a community setting. A social infrastructure that combines cooperation and enterprise can teach new models of working together.
Joe and Stephanie Mancini established The Working Centre in the spring of 1982 as they were completing their respective university degrees and have made a long-term commitment to developing a community-based response to unemployment and poverty. This creative and intentional community spirit continues to foster inclusive and affordable access-to-tools projects that are deeply rooted in downtown Kitchener, Ontario. In November 2014 Joe and Stephanie Mancini each received the Benemerenti Medal for their impact on the local community through The Working Centre. The Benemerenti Medal is a papal honour that recognizes civil and military daring and courage.
