  • Displaced Ukrainians will be knowledgeable of the communities, resources, and organizations working to support displaced Ukrainians. 
  • Displaced Ukrainians will be more skilled or have great opportunity to integrate and navigate in Albertan communities and workplaces. 
  • Displaced Ukrainians’ needs will be better supported within the first weeks in Alberta.
