Caribbean-Canadian Parents United (CCPU)

Camille Kerr, Founder & President

Representing Trinidad and Tobago, Camille was, habitually, taught to honour and identify with their culture and family history.

The traditional Caribbean values of family, identity, compassion and determination resonate with Camille and have become driving forces that navigate her daily life. These values are also key areas that both Camille and her husband, as conscientious parents, consistently instill in their five young children.

Becoming a mother heightened Camille’s understanding that identity, belonging, reliance, responsibility and philanthropy are fundamental characteristics in a successful community. These characteristics became the underlying values when she founded Caribbean Women’s Society, and subsequently, Caribbean-Canadian Parents United and Caribbean-Canadian Chamber of Commerce & Community.

Camille is a University of Toronto graduate with a BA Hon. in Sociology, Philosophy and Political Science.
