Bringing PEI’s community sector together for a stronger voice, shared knowledge, and resources.

Statement on the province's 2026-2027 Operating Budget

The Community Sector Network of PEI (CSN) released a statement on April 17, 2026, responding to the province’s 2026–2027 Operating Budget, highlighting both promising investments and ongoing concerns for the community sector.

 

To better understand how these developments are affecting organizations on the ground, we have also launched a survey inviting members to share their perspectives on the budget. The survey seeks feedback on both the successes and shortcomings of the 2026–2027 provincial operating budget, helping ensure that the experiences of community organizations inform future advocacy and decision-making.
