About this Event
Join the Hamilton Immigration Partnership Council (HIPC) at our Fall Community Forum for the reveal of our new Community Plan!
The Hamilton Immigration Partnership Council (HIPC) is a community table that seeks to create a seamless settlement experience for newcomers in Hamilton. With partners from various sectors – including settlement, education, business, health, social services, municipal affairs, and persons with lived immigration experience — we work together to create a welcoming community with relevant and accessible services.
Our new Community Plan is a collaborative vision, guided by key insights from our 2023 Immigrant Survey and shaped directly by input from our March 2024 Community Forum. Created by the community, for the community, this plan highlights our shared commitment to supporting newcomers as they settle and build their lives in Hamilton.
Be part of shaping Hamilton’s future! We invite you to participate and share your feedback on how the plan reflects and proposes action on the diverse needs of newcomers in our city.
