Resources - Newcomer Integration Toolkit

The Newcomer Integration Toolkit provides physical and human resources that will aid in the building of community capacity to support immigrant integration and social inclusion. The toolkit aims to support social service agencies by providing resources, practical supports and best practices that will enable the community to better meet the unique needs of newcomers. The toolkit is the product of a collaboration between the Peterborough Partnership Council on Immigrant Integration, New Canadians Centre and Community and Race Relations Committee.

Staff are also available to assist agencies in determining priority areas and implementing measures and to provide customized training sessions for management, staff and volunteers.

Please feel free to consult CRRC Co-ordinator Karolyn Givogue (742-9658; This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it ) for assistance in implementing elements of the toolkit.
