Mission Statement
Over 35 years, the Edmonton Mennonite Centre for Newcomers (EMCN) has been bridging the transition of newcomers into the Edmonton community. To achieve this vision, we are serving as key catalysts and leading collaborators into positively shaping the attitudes, behaviours and practices of organizations and individuals to value the diversity that newcomers bring to the community.
About This Cause
The Edmonton Mennonite Centre for Newcomers (EMCN) is an immigrant settlement agency whose primary focus is the successful and integrative settlement of newcomers to Edmonton. We revolve our practices around the values of social justice, diversity, compassion, and responsibility; we strive to achieve these values while improving the quality of life for all newcomers and Canadians alike. As a community agency, we seek to assist immigrants and refugees coming to the Edmonton area in achieving full participation in the community as well as contributing their experiences and skills to strengthen and enrich the lives of all Canadians. EMCN pursues this vision through a wide range of programs and services that include English as a Second Language (ESL), Employment Services, Settlement Counseling, Personal Counseling, Therapy, Community Development and Community Economic Development, Advocacy, and Education. The agency is committed to working in full collaboration with Newcomers and their communities to provide programs and services to meet their needs. There is also a commitment to work with other community agencies in partnerships when possible.
