Waterfront Neighbourhood Centre is a member of the Association of Community Centres (AOCCs) network, which consists of City-owned or City-managed facilities that are managed, operated and maintained by volunteer Boards of Management,

These Centres are multi-purpose facilities that provide public space, programs and services to meet the social and recreation needs of local communities. They are committed to fostering a sense of community, promoting civic engagement and enhancing the quality of life through their community, recreational and social service programs.

The core administrative activities of the community centres are funded by the City of Toronto while the program component is funded by the AOCC through various revenue sources, such as grants, donations, and fees.
