Welcome Centre Wants To Understand Residents’ Perceptions Of Immigration

Local residents are invited to tell the Immigrant Welcome Centre’s Welcoming Communities Coalition (WCC) their perceptions about immigration and how they can make our communities more welcoming for immigrants and refugees.

They are looking for answers to questions like:

What does the community need more of for the successful integration of immigrants and refugees?

Do you think our community has a reputation for being open and welcoming for newcomers?

Have you experienced discrimination while living in the community?

They’re looking for participants who have lived in Campbell River or the Comox Valley regions for more than five years, to fill out the WCC’s 2023 Community Survey until Aug. 11.

Participation helps the coalition and other local organizations better understand what the community needs more of for the successful settlement and integration of immigrants and refugees.

The survey is voluntary and anonymous, and participants can enter a draw for prizes.

To take the survey, visit Welcome Centre Survey.
