Local Immigrant Partnership Strategy (LIPS)
The Local Immigrant Partnership is a new initiative that funds communities to develop a comprehensive and collaborative approach to immigration by developing a local partnership council that represents a cross-section of organizations with an interest in working towards a strategy that fits the needs of their community.
A workplan was developed with the collective input of Newcomers and the Agencies that serve them. The 2011/2012 implementation work plan outline includes timeline and measurable, achievable steps needed to begin the process of turning recommendations into implementation.
The following documents capture the main ideas impacting Newcomers settling within Niagara:

Immigrant-serving Agencies provide settlement services designed to help newcomers to Niagara and Canada adjust to their new life. In Niagara, there are several community organizations that provide the required services to immigrants/newcomers. The services include information on housing, education, legal services, employment services, schools for your children, health referrals, transportation, interpretation and translation services and much more. They will also refer you to the right organization for the services you need.
