The Settlement and Education Partnerships in Waterloo Region (SEPWR) team is committed to building bridges to link newcomers with the school and the community.
The settlement workers in schools (SWIS) are dedicated to assisting and connecting newcomer students and their families to services and resources, in the school and the community, to foster student achievement.
In addition to offering a wide range of settlement services, we also provide specific support in partnership with schools in the following areas:
These services are provided through a partnership between the YMCAs of Cambridge & Kitchener-Waterloo, Settlement Workers in School (SWIS) , Citizenship and Immigration Canada, Waterloo Region District School Board and Waterloo Region Catholic School Board.
