In this episode of Growing Pictou County, One Story at a Time, brought to you by the Pictou County Partnership, Ann MacGregor from Nova Scotia Works Career Connections sits down with Sarah Santos from the Partnership to learn more about the Community Connections Program and how it supports newcomers with building meaningful connections in Pictou County.
Moving to a new place can come with a long to-do list: housing, work, paperwork, and once those first steps are done, a new question often comes up, how do I build a life and community here? The program creates meaningful connections that help newcomers feel welcomed and supported.
You’ll also hear from volunteers who share their experiences building meaningful connections in our community.
If you’re new to Pictou County and are looking for support with getting connected, meeting people, or finding activities in the community, reach out to the Partnership by email at [email protected].
