CRIW in the Community
CRIW Initiative
CRIW is committed to collaborating with individuals and organizations to support existing programs, collectively envision and create new, meaningful initiatives and celebrate community. We see this as vital to our learning and growth and to better serve refugees and immigrants in our community.
