Temporary Foreign Workers Resource Book: The Edmonton Mennonite Centre for Newcomers has prepared a resource book for Temporary Foreign Workers that contains basic information about living & working in Edmonton, rules about foreign workers, and contact information for community organizations and government resources. These books would be useful for any agency or group who needs information about how to support and refer newcomers to Canada, particularly Temporary Foreign Workers. If you would like copies of this book for your office, or to share with others as you see fits, please contact any of the following community workers at EMCN:

English & Somali Resource: Edmonton Public Schools and ACCESS Television collaborated to produce a DVD (in English and Somali) that explains basic facts about the education system and Edmonton Public Schools. Print resources were also developed to complement the DVD.
Online, go to the Partners in Education Program. Once there, click on Families as Partners and you’ll see EPS has posted the videos through YouTube for wide viewing. Please feel free to share this information with anyone you think might find it useful. Many thanks!
