Who We Are

The NWC operates as a division of the Moose Jaw Multicultural Council, generously funded by the Government of Saskatchewan.

  • Explore other gateways
  • We guide newcomers towards successful settlement by offering support and assistance in accessing information, resources, and services.
  • Whether arriving from outside Canada or another Canadian province, the Moose Jaw Newcomer Welcome Centre is dedicated to assisting you.

About Our Free Services

  • The NWC provides service in your preferred language using a telephone interpretation service, and we are available outside regular office hours if needed.
  • Our office is staffed with a Settlement Advisor who can assist you in settling successfully into your new community.
  • Services include finding translation or interpretation services, enrolling in English classes, seeking career and employment guidance, obtaining information on essential documents (Social Insurance Number cards, health cards, driver's licenses, etc.), and learning about Moose Jaw, other communities, immigration referals, and settlement.
  • Additionally, we offer computer access, internet facilities, a photocopier, fax and printer services, workshops, information sessions on various important topics, contacts for cultural groups in the region, and a space for organizations to hold gatherings and meetings.
