On behalf of the Alberta Immigrant Women and Children Centre,we would like to wish a very Happy Mother’s Day to all mothers and mother figures in our communities.

This Mother’s Day, our youth came together to celebrate the incredible women who inspire, nurture, and support us every day through creativity and heartfelt appreciation.

Students created unique art pieces to honour their mothers and express gratitude for their endless love, sacrifices, strength, and care.

Today and every day, we celebrate and appreciate the amazing mothers and mother figures who make a lasting difference in our families, communities, and lives.

We collaborated with Norwood Child and Family Resource Centre to host a free tax clinic for our seniors and women.

For many of the individuals we serve, this meant being able to file their taxes on time, access much-needed benefits and credits, and ease financial stress. Access to free tax support makes a real difference creating stability, building confidence, and ensuring no one is left behind.

We recently had the pleasure of hosting a wonderful session with our HIPPY families in collaboration with Fort Road Pharmacy

A big thank you to Ahmed, our local pharmacist, for leading an informative and engaging session focused on family health and wellbeing. Sessions like these provide our families with valuable knowledge, practical tips, and a safe space to ask questions and connect.

Connection. Conversation. Community.

Our Anti-Racism Program is rooted in bringing people together through meaningful dialogue and shared experiences.
Through our workshops, we create space to learn, reflect, and grow together.
From thoughtful discussions within our workshops to our cozy Crochet & Chats, every session is designed to feel warm, welcoming, and community-focused.

Join us and be part of the conversation!

Our team truly enjoyed the evening connecting with others, celebrating an important cause, and taking in such a wonderful atmosphere. It was a memorable experience, and many of our staff left feeling inspired and uplifted.

We’re honored to have been included and look forward to future opportunities to come together again.

As we close this chapter of our Health Literacy Project, we do so with deep gratitude.

This work was about more than health literacy—it was about access, dignity, and empowerment.

With the support of and , we were able to create spaces where individuals felt seen, heard, and empowered--spaces where knowledge turned into confidence, and confidence into action.

Your support helped bridge critical gaps in access to information, build trust within the community, and equip individuals and families with the tools they need to make informed decisions about their health.

We would also like to extend a heartfelt thank you to the dedicated health providers who generously shared their time, knowledge, and expertise. Your commitment to educating and supporting our community played a vital role in the success and impact of this project.

Thank you for believing in this work and for making this impact possible. Together, we are building stronger, more equitable communities.
