Priorities & Projects
#2 Access to Community Information & Services
Community research findings indicate that newcomers in the Tri-Cities face challenges in learning about and accessing community information and services including settlement services. Service providers have also indicated the need for more opportunities to connect with other providers to strengthen their capacity to support newcomers’ needs.
Goals:
- Community stakeholders are aware of barriers newcomers experience in their settlement journey & are engaged to support newcomers’ needs.
- Community stakeholders are aware of settlement services in the Tri-Cities and are able to refer newcomers to access these immigration services.
