About Us
In recent years, Alberta has witnessed a significant influx of newcomers and young workers eager to contribute to our vibrant economy. However, many face daunting barriers to employment, including a lack of recognition of their skills, unfamiliarity with Canadian workplace culture, and limited access to job opportunities. The unemployment rate for newcomers often exceeds the national average, while young workers frequently find themselves in precarious, underpaid positions. This situation not only stifles individual potential but also their mental health and overall well-being. The future looks bleak without the support and resources necessary to integrate into the workforce and society at large.
​
At the Alberta Multicultural Integration Centre, we are dedicated to addressing these challenges head-on. Our comprehensive approach focuses on empowering individuals through tailored services that foster economic prosperity and social mobility. We understand that the path to success is not a one-size-fits-all journey, and we are here to provide the guidance and support needed to navigate it.
Vision
Our vision is to ensure that immigrants, newcomers, refugees, and young workers from East Africa have the jobs and integration support they need to contribute to Alberta’s and Canada’s economic and social success. We envision a community where everyone has the opportunity to thrive and succeed.
