PEIANC Community Engagement and Employment Workshops

Provincial Immigration Partnership PEI's PIP develops and works alongside a province-wide, multi-sectoral network of traditional and non-tra- ditional partners in immigration. This helps increase capacity, improve collaboration, strengthen stakeholder relations, and improve sharing of information and resources between immigrant partners and across their support network. PEI's immigration partners benefit directly from the coordinating and capacity-building function of PIP, while PEI's immigrant population benefits through increased community support. When many newcomer clients showed their stress with ongo- ing changes and challenges due to covid, the Provincial Immi- gration Partnership team released a survey to the newcomer community to get a clearer view on how they were dealing with the situation. The results yielded several actionable items in the areas of healthcare, mental health, employment supports, and more. This survey provided the data and input needed to help determine current and future needs for the growing immi- grant community in PEI. 16
