21. An Example

22. Newcomers and immigrants thrive and integrate into community life:What do we know about this population result in Peel? From Federico at the Peel Data Centre: – Recent immigrants are more likely to live in poverty – Recent immigrants who are also visible minorities are at even higher risk of poverty, and their poverty is more likely to persist over time

23. Newcomers and immigrants thrive and integrate into community life:What do we know about this population result in Peel? From Our Analysis of United Way and regional Investments: – Both funders support a wide range of programs that focus on adaptation an engagement – Together, they invest 3.5 million towards this outcome – Many of these programs are universal, and a few are targeted specifically for immigrants – Programs tend to focus on adaptation (skills) and community engagement; they are less likely to focus on family dynamics or employment.

25. Small Group Exercise 1.Find someone at your table who can describe a real, existing program that is intended to contribute to “ Newcomers and immigrants thriving and integrating into community life” 2.What indicators might be used to show who is better off as a result of this program? What might show the contribution this program makes to the community result?
