Volunteer Alberta launches "Intersections II"

So many organizations in Alberta are working within newcomer and immigrant communities.  There are a number of cultural and societal uniquenesses that make it difficult to communicate with and engage these newcomers in the not for profit sector.  Volunteer Alberta has been working toward supporting organizations in their efforts to develop relationships within newcomer communities.
