The Calgary Local Immigrant Partnership (CLIP) aims to create a more welcoming and inclusive community for immigrants and newcomers in Calgary. CLIP works with employers, school boards, health organizations, boards of trade, government, professional associations, ethnocultural and faith-based organizations, and the community and social service sectors to improve the quality of life of immigrants.

CLIP is focused on:

• Promoting open conversations about mental health in newcomer communities to reduce stigma.
• Enabling more access to sport to promote health and community engagement.
• Educating the community about the valuable contributions of immigrants to Calgary.

• The Calgary Newcomer Service Guide is a useful information tool for Calgarians, including organizations and individuals.
• Visit Gateway Connects for more information on newcomer services and programs in Calgary.
• Visit Translation and Interpretation Services to learn about the agencies and organizations that offer those supports.
• Read first hand experiences of Calgary’s newcomers in CLIP’s latest Newcomer Survey.
