Networking
Networking is all about building relationships with people who share a common goal. As you navigate the UREACHToronto web site you will become familiar with people, churches, organizations that desire to have a transformative influence among the diverse peoples living in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA). Here are some ways you can use this web site to expand your network of people working with the diverse peoples living in Toronto.
Cultural Communities
UReachToronto has over 100 country profiles. By exploring these profiles you can find:
- Ethnic groups and where they are located in Toronto
- Immigrant churches from diverse cultures which you can connect with
- Social services serving particular ethnic linguistic groups
Volunteer
We encourage individuals and churches to explore volunteer opportunities in refugee centres such as Adam House or Matthew House. The New Comers centre at Peoples Church is also a great place to serve and expand your network. Volunteer Now!
Tim Centre Events And Training
TIM Centre is a great place to find like-minded people. Come to one of our “Brown Bag Lunch Events” to hear an international speaker. Taking a TIM Centre seminar or Diploma course will also expand your knowledge and introduce you to people from diverse cultural and denominational backgrounds. See Upcoming Events!
Engage Our City
Networking needs several important aspects. First, you need a clear focus and second, you will need intentionality and time to research and follow through on leads that you discover. Browse through the “Community Context”, “City Services” and “Toronto Research“. There you will find lots of links to services provided by municipal and NGO agencies.
