Community
Participating in your community is great way to connect with new people for friendship and networking. When you register with the Immigrant Settlement & Integration Program, you will have the chance to get involved in many different activities that take place in your local community.
In our Champions of SUCCESS program we honour local community leaders, businesses and service agencies who support immigrant and refugees to thrive in Canada.
