From: Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n Canada remains dedicated to offering vital support and services to newcomers, facilitating their integration into the economy and communities. On November 15, 2023, the Honourable Marc Miller, Minister of Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship, announced the launch of a national call for proposals. This initiative aims to fund numerous service provider organizations<\/a> across Canada, excluding Quebec, over a five-year period.<\/p>\n This year’s proposals focus on enhancing settlement and resettlement services. Key areas include supporting truth and reconciliation objectives, providing pathways for Francophone newcomers outside Quebec, and boosting programs serving racialized communities, 2SLGBTQI+, and other underrepresented groups. The initiative also seeks to integrate technology and partnerships, enhancing service delivery while maintaining quality support.<\/p>\n Service providers are crucial in welcoming newcomers, including refugees, throughout Canada. They equip these individuals with the necessary tools, resources, and information for success. Services cover language training, job assistance, and fostering connections with established residents, helping newcomers build successful lives while aiding employers and communities in becoming more inclusive.<\/p>\n For eligibility details and application instructions, please visit our website<\/a>. Applications close on January 31, 2024.<\/p>\n As we welcome more newcomers to Canada, we need to make sure they have the support they need to succeed in their new lives. We will continue to support settlement and resettlement service providers who play a crucial role in ensuring newcomers have the resources they need for their continued success across the country. Canada values the economic, social and cultural contributions of newcomers to their communities.<\/p>\n \u2013 The Honourable Marc Miller, Minister of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n Bahoz Dara Aziz Media Relations The Government of Canada is committed to ensuring that eligible newcomers have the support and services they need to succeed in fully integrating into and contributing both to the Canadian economy and to their new communities. … <\/i>Read More<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":4565,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[89],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4567","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-immigration"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/applytocanada.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4567","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/applytocanada.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/applytocanada.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/applytocanada.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/applytocanada.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4567"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/applytocanada.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4567\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/applytocanada.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4565"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/applytocanada.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4567"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/applytocanada.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4567"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/applytocanada.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4567"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}Empowering Newcomers in Canada<\/h2>\n
