Let’s Get it Done!

We work with a Central Planning Council to get things done! The council is made up of members from various businesses, agencies, and organizations. The council meets monthly to discuss the needs of newcomers and how we can best work together to meet them. The meetings also cover program updates from Red Deer Local Immigration Partnership and our Council Members to ensure that we have services available for all newcomers while minimizing any overlap in service delivery.

Land Acknowledgement

In the spirit of reconciliation, the Red Deer Local Immigration Partnership recognizes that our service area resides on Turtle Island, encompassing lands under Treaty 6 and 7, and Alberta Zone 3 for the Métis People. These lands have long been traditional meeting grounds, gathering places, and pathways for Cree Nations such as Saulteaux (So-toe), Métis, Dene (De-nay), and Nakota Sioux (Sue), as well as Blackfoot Nations including Siksika (Sick-sick-ah), Piikani (Pee-can-ee), and Kainai (Kigh-a-nigh), Tsuut’ina (Soot-sina), and Stoney Nakoda First Nations.

The Red Deer Local Immigration Partnership is privileged to live, work, and serve within these communities, and we are committed to responsibly stewarding this land. As we embark on our journey of reconciliation, we invite you to join us in fostering inclusive communities that embrace people from all walks of life.
