Welcoming Week 2024
Welcoming Week is an annual opportunity to recognize and celebrate the people, places and values that help everyone feel welcome and give them a sense of belonging in their local community, no matter where they come from.
This year’s Welcoming Week takes place from September 13 - 22. We recognize the important work of many immigrant settlement organizations in this space. Welcoming Week is an excellent opportunity to raise awareness of these activities. Successful integration is a two-way street: the more welcoming communities are, the more newcomers feel at home and contribute locally.
During this Welcoming Week, the Fort Frances Public Library will be holding a number of events and activities to increase awareness for locals and enhance the welcoming newcomers receive. We invite you to be a part of this Welcoming Week! Details as to these upcoming events will be coming to you shortly.
