Our Stories

Embracing the beauty of nature at the Leaf! Grateful for @assiniboine_park and their generous invitation to partner with them in the Family Nature Club.

IRCOM`s senior management team was very pleased to hold our planning meetings at a brand new space, a local business called @createfulspaces , right next door to IRCOM Ellen! at 359 McDermot Avenue, Winnipeg. They have cool team offices, hi-tech meeting rooms and buzzing hot desks. Exciting vibes for creative minds, entrepreneurs and freelancers!

Recently, we met with the amazing leadership team at Red River College`s Centre for Newcomer Integration. They are located just blocks away from our two locations, in the beautiful new Manitou A Bi Bii Daziigae building named by Elders to honour the spirit of this place of learning. The Indigenous name has a beautiful meaning: Where Creator Sits, Brings Light (in Anishinaabemowin (Ojibwe). The CNI assists more than 2,500 students every year in building English language, cultural communication, and academic skills to further their education, training and employment goals! In our meeting and tour, we discovered many points of connection and possibilities for future partnerships. What an exciting outing for our leadership team!

Thank you to the Community Housing Transformation Centre for supporting our Greening Program this year! With their help, we were able to make the most of summer, sharing farming skills, growing diverse types of produce and teaching our kids how to grow veggies.
