​Grey-Bruce Local Immigration Partnership launches immigrant survey

The Grey-Bruce Local Immigration Partnership has launched its first immigrant survey which runs until Dec. 31.

The survey is the first of its kind for all immigrants, refugees, claimants, international students, temporary workers and their families in Grey-Bruce. It is an opportunity to share experiences of living, working and studying here and helping build a thriving, prosperous community for everyone.

More than 66 organizations, including community service, business, municipal and post-secondary partners across Grey Bruce region, will use the results to develop policies and programs that better serve, support and empower immigrants and other community members to reach their full potential.

The survey aims to hear from at least 200 immigrants on such topics as education, housing, employment, health, belonging, discrimination, community building, and more. Demographic questions are included so that survey results can be analyzed and disaggregated to show the various experiences of different immigrant groups.

Available mainly on-line, the survey can also be completed by E-mail, phone or paper, if needed. The Immigration Partnership invites all residents, organizations and businesses in Grey-Bruce to help encourage all immigrants to participate in the survey, among family, friends, neighbourhoods, at work, and through other networks and social media.
