On Wednesday, May 21, our Refugee Legal Clinic and Support Services team from the downtown office was proud to represent Healthy Muslim Families at the MANSO Information & Networking Fair 2025!
It was a great opportunity to share our work supporting newcomers and to connect with fellow newcomer-serving organizations from across Manitoba.
Thank you to the Manitoba Association of Newcomer Serving Organization (MANSO) for organizing such a meaningful event that strengthens collaboration and community support.

Our team dropped by the new @manitobaiec office in Winkler with a welcome gift, planting seeds of kindness and connection as neighbors in this growing community.
A reminder that even small gestures can spark meaningful change. 🌱💛

We had the pleasure of hosting Briana Miller and Pinash Akter from YMCA at our head office.
Their session provided valuable insights and resources for newcomer-serving organizations like ours.
We are grateful for the opportunity to learn from their work and connect ahead in the Still I Rise Conference hosted by Elmwood Community Resource Centre.

We had a fantastic turnout at our RBC Banking Workshop on April 15, where newcomers and refugees learned all about:
✔️ Opening a bank account
✔️ Understanding credit and interest
✔️ Budgeting basics
✔️ Canadian banking rights and options
Huge thanks to @rbc for empowering our community with financial knowledge 💙. And to everyone who attended, we’re proud of your journey!
