The Welcoming Communities Initiative is pleased to announce the launch of the Good Neighbour Network on Friday March 4th at 11:00 am at the Grey Bruce Health Unit Atrium, 101 17th St. East, Owen Sound. The Good Neighbour Network trains community members to help orient newcomers to life in Owen Sound and area. Newcomers are recent arrivals and are immigrants, refugees, and people from other parts of Canada.
One round of training occurred in November and the next one is slated for late April. Those who come to the Launch will learn how the Good Neighbour Network works, and how trained mentors can support newcomers to the community. There will be information on how to become a volunteer mentor to connect with newcomers and help them make Owen Sound and area their home.
This event will last approximately half an hour, with tea, cookies, and networking to follow as a way to symbolize welcome and togetherness.
All are welcome.
