Newcomer Women's Conference

  • Todmorden Mills Heritage Site, 67 Pottery Road Toronto, ON, M4K 2B9 Canada (map)

We invite you to join us in recognizing the achievements and systemic barriers faced by newcomer and refugee women!

This conference, held at Todmorden Mills Heritage Site (67 Pottery Rd, Toronto, ON) will recognize the exceptional work of all the newcomer women in the Social Justice Lab Fellowship (SJL) and the Advanced Leadership Program (ALP). This day celebrates the graduations of the ALP women, and awards them their completion certificates. The day will welcome Immigrant Women Industry leaders to view and respond to the SJL final presentations. Additionally, a discussion panel brings women from both programs (ALP & SJL) together to illuminate barriers facing newcomer women gaining meaningful employment.
