When sponsoring refugees, private sponsors do not only commit to providing financial support, they also have a duty to help the refugee settle and integrate.
To help private sponsors brace themselves for what lays ahead once the refugee sets foot in Canada, the Refugee Sponsorship Training Program (RSTP) is organizing a webinar.
The following themes will be addressed:
-
A recap of sponsors’ settlement and financial responsibilities under the private sponsorship program
-
A review of the frequently asked questions on post-arrival financial support
-
The importance of connecting newcomers with a settlement agency
-
Managing expectations
-
Power imbalance
-
Ethical considerations
Date: Wednesday, 19th of June, 2019
Time: 1:00 p.m to 3:00 p.m EDT
