On January 14, 2012 Peterborough Family Resource Centre and Peterborough Partnership Council on Immigrant Integration co-hosted Family Fun Time at the Peterborough Family Resource Centre. This event provided an opportunity for newcomers to learn about one of the incredible social and cultural amenities available in Peterborough. The afternoon will included a tour of the PFRC facilities and an introduction to the wide range of programs it offers.

The aim of the event was to promote the Peterborough Welcome Pass and the services offered by its newest partner, The Peterborough Family Resource Centre. The Peterborough Welcome Pass is a new program of the Peterborough Partnership Council on Immigrant Integration (PPCII) and the New Canadians Centre (NCC).  It is designed to give newcomers to Peterborough a foothold and introduction to all the different cultural, arts, and recreational spaces in the Peterborough area.

The Peterborough Family Resource Centre (PFRC) joins 21 other organizations such as the Peterborough Canoe Museum, Lang Pioneer Village, ArtSpace and the Peterborough Sports Hall of Fame as a committed partner with the Welcome Pass, showcasing the variety of spaces and places holders of the pass will have access to.
