Squadron Sponsoring Committees are community-level organizations that coordinate local support for cadet squadrons. Committee members are varied, but often include parents of current and former cadets, military personnel and community members. The Royal Canadian Air Cadets refer to this group as the Squadron Sponsoring Committee (SSC). All SSC members are volunteers.

The Sponsoring Committee is a legal entity, with charitable status, and operates under the authority of the Air Cadet League, Ontario Provincial Committee (OPC).

Squadron Sponsoring Committees are responsible for providing suitable accommodation for cadet training and activities, promoting the Cadet Program to the community, managing all squadron funds, and fundraising for additional activities not supported by the Department of National Defense (DND).

New members welcome

The 812 SSC normally meets on the second Monday of every month. Please contact the Committee Chair if you are interested in more information and/or you are interested in joining the committee. Please note that all new members undergo a thorough screening process including a police check with Vulnerable Sector Screening.

To contact the 812 SSC, we invite you to send an email to 812ssc@gmail.com.
