Jewish Appeal is very interested in welcoming immigrants to Winnipeg. There are many opportunities for employment but these opportunities may vary depending on your profession, proficiency in English and first employment expectations.
Housing prices are among the lowest in Canada.
The Federation has been working with the Province of Manitoba to encourage immigration to our community. Over the past three years, more than 200 families have come to Winnipeg from Argentina, Israel, Ukraine, Bosnia, Russia and other countries. The Federation's Department of Community Relations advises potential newcomers about the immigration process and provides them with information about the Jewish community and about Winnipeg's unique advantages and opportunities. We try to reduce the inevitable stress that newcomers experience as they adjust to a new environment, culture and language. JCFS offers the full scope of immigration services ranging from pre-migration to resettlement, integration and postmigration.
