Bow Valley Mental Health Participatory Action Learning (MHPAL) Project
People from around the world think about and experience mental health differently, so the services and programs that work for one community might not work for another. To learn how we can better support culturally and linguistically diverse groups in the Bow Valley, we’re leading the Bow Valley Mental Health Participatory Action Research Project 2022.
Bow Valley Integration Assessment
We heard from over 700 Bow Valley locals through a community survey, focus groups, interviews, and meetings. Here’s what we know about immigrant wellbeing, participation, and inclusion in our community.
Improving inclusion and integration of immigrants through a voluntary workplace charter
BVIP was featured in the Canadian Journal of Public Health, Innovations in Policy and Practice (2021) for our Workplace Inclusion Charter. The Charter was signed on by 8 Bow Valley employers representing 28 local businesses and covering 2,846 full-time equivalent employees.

We researched existing needs in education-related services for English language learners, literacy learners and underemployed adults (including foreign-trained adults) in the Bow Valley.
Bow Valley Integration Assessment (2014)
Working backwards from a vision of full inclusion and integration, BVIP stakeholders identified relevant local indicators of integration to create the Bow Valley Local Immigration Partnership.
