Rural Settlement

Rural and small centres offer services for newcomers to help orient them to the community, the resources and services available, as well as providing specific supports for newcomers, such as language supports, meet and greet events, youth programming, employment supports and more. For more information, please visit the various settlement offices in Manitoba:

 

Welcome Place works directly with Ukrainians and regional service providers to make the transition for Ukrainian newcomers to regional communities as smooth as possible by 1) helping to organize individual exploratory visits with rural service provider organizations (SPOs) and follow-up with moving interested families to rural towns; and 2) ensuring that employment, accommodation and additional settlement support are in place before families move. To learn more email info@miic.ca

 

Communities that would like to welcome and settle Ukrainians can contact Welcome Place by email at info@miic.ca to discuss opportunities to settle newcomers in your community.
