Local family services building to receive funding for upgrades

Ontario is investing $16 million towards 140 agencies across the province to help them serve children, youth and families.

Over $100,000 is going towards one of the major Muskoka organizations.

The Simcoe Muskoka Child, Youth and Family Services building will have a number of renovations funded.

This includes replacing entrance doors, upgrading sump pumps and renovations on the roof.

Officials say last year hundreds of community agencies received more than $20 million towards upgrades and repairs.
