Through the curtesy of the Western Ontario Wardens Caucus (WOWC), GBLIP, in partnership with the Four County Labour Market Planning Board, Town of Hanover and Saugeen Economic Development Corporation, is conducting the Newcomer Readiness Project and inviting community stakeholders to complete the WOWC Newcomer Readiness Checklist  on SurveyMonkey.

After completing the survey, each participant will receive an email with individual scores that will help identify areas of focus for newcomer and immigrant attraction and retention efforts. Upon completion of the project your community will receive a report that can be used to gain a clearer picture of the overall results. This project will help GBLIP and community stakeholders tailor a collaborative approach to becoming a welcoming community.
