A resource highlighting how rural communities can transform spaces to support diverse populations

With growing populations of Ukrainian evacuees across the province, it is also the reality that many more organizations, businesses, communities, groups, and individuals who may not specifically aim to support Ukrainian evacuees are and will be increasingly coming into contact with them throughout the course of their day-to-day activities. This is especially true for smaller, rural, and remote communities that may not have formal service providers specialized for settlement and newcomers. Recognizing this, this guidebook seeks to provide these diverse groups and individuals with background knowledge, tips, and best practices for interacting with Ukrainian evacuees in order to support positive outcomes and environments for both newcomers and members of receiving communities and foster healthy relationships and thriving, integrated communities.

This guidebook will discuss resources to assist Ukrainian newcomers with finding housing, employment, healthcare, education, and the next steps in settling successfully in their new home.
