The Terrace Bay-Schreiber Action Centres mandate was to assist displaced workers in developing the skills and knowledge necessary to cope with the current labour market. The Centre provided services such as job search assistance, outreach to affected workers, personal support in dealing with the stress of job loss, and financial counselling. All three partners, the Township of Terrace Bay, the Township of Schreiber, and the USWA Union provided in kind support from financial and administrative services, to office space, to coffee supplies, as well as being active participants on the Labour Adjustment Committee. The project was made possible with suport from MTCU (Ministry of Training, Colleges, and Universities) as well as the Employment Branch Services of Confederation College.

The Centre had over 500 registered people and provided service to over 450 individuals. 93 percent of these workers have been adjusted, either thorugh a recall to work or training.
