Community Collaborations and Partnerships

AAISA plays a pivotal role in fostering involvement, collaboration, and partnerships within the community to support newcomers. Within the newcomer sector, AAISA collaborates with other newcomer umbrella organizations to streamline services, share information and resources, and advocate for comprehensive settlement and integration policies. Beyond the newcomer-specific agencies, AAISA actively partners with indirect newcomer support systems, including legal, various levels of government, and social service organizations. These collaborations ensure a holistic approach to newcomer support, addressing a wide array of needs such as legal assistance, housing, employment, and social integration. By bridging the gap between direct and indirect services, AAISA enhances the overall effectiveness and accessibility of support for newcomers, facilitating their smoother transition and successful integration into the community.
