It is the second year in a row the Region, which employs more than 1,500 people, has received the recognition. The award recognizes employers offering programs to assist new Canadians in making the transition to a new workplace and life in the country. Halton Region provides career- track, paid internships to interna- tionally-educated jobseekers through the Career Bridge intern- ship program, hosting interns in asset management, community relations, and planning/trans- portation services areas, states Mediacorps website www.eluta.ca/new-canadians-at- regional-municipality-of-halton. The Region also provides four- month mentorships to new Canadians through Job Connect, an employment program managed by the Sheridan College Institute of Technology and Advanced Learning. Immigrants are matched with mentors who have a similar career and professional background and help their mentees access profes- sional networks, revise their resumes, and hone their interview skills. Halton Region also participates in placement programs with the Halton Multicultural Council and the Canadian Caribbean Association of Halton. Between 2001 and 2006, Haltons immigrant population increased by almost 30 per cent compared to an overall rate of 12 per cent in Ontario. Halton expects this trend to continue, as Halton becomes the home for more peo- ple. The population of the commu- nity is expected to grow 62.5 per cent to 780,000 by 2031. To meet future labour market needs and maintain a competitive workforce, we do as much as we can to ensure the success of those who come to us through international immigration said Halton Region Chair Gary Carr in a written release. Newcomers contribute to our economic, social and cultural devel- opment and it is in everyones inter- est to help them settle into a healthy and prosperous life in Halton. Oak Park Neighbourhood Centre wants to feed the vulnerable people in the community, but it needs help. The centre has entered the Aviva Community Fund online competition in hopes of receiving funding for its ini- tiative to develop a solution. The project was entered into the $25,000-100,000 category. There will be at least one winner per category. The Oak Park project is now in the second round which closes Nov. 5. To find out more or to vote, visit www.avivacommunityfund.org/ideas/ac f6565.
