The Lanark County Planning Council for Children and Youth needed a website that they could use as both a means of information-sharing and educating the public on the needs of youth in our community but also as  portal for member-agencies to log in securely and to share information.

The Planning Council received a whole web site redesign along with a WordPress Multi-User installation and a Buddypress, social media portal to allow them the opportunity to network with each other.

OnCouRSS Web Development is a pleasure to work with. Shelley and her colleagues are knowledgeable, quick to address concerns and excellent at follow-up. The complete redesign that OnCouRSS completed for the Lanark County Tourism website has been extremely successful – The look, the functionality and the layout are all more than we could have hoped for.

I would highly recommend OnCouRSS Web Solutions and their team of professionals.
