The perinatal program, Helping Our Babies Grow, relies on staffing from Public Health and East End Community Health Services. The Beaches-East York Ontario Early Years Centre and its lead agency, East York-East Toronto Family Resources, provided a Cultural-linguistic Worker for the Applegrove Parent/Child program and a program worker for The HAIG until June 2008, then funded additional staff. Also until June 2008, Adult ESL classes depended on teachers supplied by the Toronto District School Board. Applegrove appreciates the support from on-site partners, S.H. Armstrong Recreation Centre, Woodgreen Woodfield Daycare, and Duke of Connaught Public School.
