We are collaborative community initiative dedicated to increasing sense of belonging among newcomer and the community of Medicine Hat (and area)
Our focus is on supporting welcoming initiatives, creating a culture of inclusion, and integrating newcomers into economic development.
What we do …
Increase Community Participation in Newcomer Integration
Integration is a two-way process that involves commitment by immigrants and refugees to adapt to life in Canada, and by Canadians to welcome new people and cultures. When the community participates in welcoming newcomers, newcomers can more quickly and smoothly become contributing members
Build a Welcoming Community to Help Attract and Retain Newcomers
Creating communities that are welcoming, inclusive, and provide opportunities to all make Medicine Hat an attractive location to live. Attracting diverse people will bring innovation and a vibrant workforce.
Conduct Community Based Research and Planning
By conducting community-based research and planning, we can identify gaps in our community and then ensure programs and networks are in place to support newcomers where needed.
Celebrate Newcomers and Their Contributions to our Community
Fostering positive attitudes about all people in our community will create an environment that feels welcoming. Let’s celebrate our community!
