Problem:

Newcomers face significant barriers in securing employment, navigating the settlement system, and establishing a sense of belonging in new communities.

Additionally, the support system for newcomers is flawed due to a lack of genuine collaboration among organizations, fragmented services, and inefficient use of resources. Many newcomers remain uninformed or unable to access services

Our Approach

Newcomers Front and Center

We place newcomers at the heart of everything we do. They are actively involved in various capacities, from the initial stages of program design right through to the assessment phase. This inclusive approach ensures that our initiatives are genuinely reflective of their needs and aspirations, fostering a sense of ownership and empowerment among those we aim to assist.

Collaboration is Key

We believe that providing comprehensive support requires leveraging the diverse resources and expertise available within the community. Our partnerships extend beyond mere referrals; we are committed to fostering deep, long-term relationships with a wide range of organizations. By combining our strengths, we can develop innovative programs specifically tailored to meet the unique needs of different newcomer groups, ensuring no one is left behind.

Committed to Research and Evidence

At the core of our approach is a rigorous commitment to research and evidence. We continually seek out the latest findings and best practices to inform our programs, ensuring our interventions are both effective and relevant. This evidence-based approach allows us to adapt and evolve our strategies to meet the changing needs of the communities we serve.

Strength-Based Narratives

We champion strength-based narratives in all our communications and programs. Recognizing and highlighting the inherent strengths, resilience, and potential of newcomers not only empowers them but also challenges and shifts public perceptions. By focusing on capabilities rather than deficits, we foster a more positive and constructive dialogue around migration and integration.
