Our Stories

Our leadership team spent the day away from the office at the University of Winnipeg, digging into the policies that shape how we work. Taking this time helps us align our decisions with our mission and keep our vision front and centre.

Every home holds a story. For anyone building a new life, that story often begins with a place to call home. At IRCOM, housing is more than four walls. It’s where belonging takes root and community comes alive.

When a family moves into an IRCOM apartment, they’re not just handed keys. They’re welcomed into a space that supports growth and connection, helping parents find jobs, guiding children through school, and offering programs that build confidence and independence.

We empower newcomer families as they settle and integrate into Canadian life. Stable, affordable housing is the foundation for success. From that foundation grows confidence, opportunity, and community.

IRCOM works toward a Manitoba where every newcomer feels at home, valued, and included. Guided by respect, diversity, empowerment, and collaboration, we continue to build spaces where belonging is lived every day through shared meals, laughter in hallways, and friendships that cross cultures.

Today, on National Housing Day, we celebrate housing as a human right and a cornerstone of belonging. Because when people have a safe home, they have the power to build their future.

In September, we came together for Meet the Neighbours, a vibrant gathering held in partnership with amazing partners in the Centennial neighbourhood, especially our good friends at Rossbrook House, stories were shared, cultures connected, and bridges were built between newcomers and Indigenous communities. Thanks to the support of Canadian Heritage, this event sparked meaningful connections across cultures.🌿🤝” #CanadianHeritage @alexjayhamm @rbhwpg @cdn.heritage

Did you see the joy on their faces? Our newcomer kids dressed up and headed out for trick and treating with so much excitement.

Thank you to every staff member and volunteer who helped them get ready and made the day feel special. What this really means is that together we’re creating moments that help families feel connected, confident, and welcomed in their new community.

Grateful for everyone who made Halloween a little brighter for our newcomer families.
