Abstract
Calgary Catholic Immigration Society (CCIS) and The Immigrant Education Society (TIES) are non-profit organizations based in Calgary that support newcomers in integrating and finding belonging in Canada. Recognizing a need within Calgary’s immigrant and newcomer communities for systems navigation support and facilitated pathways into mental health supports, in 2023/2024 CCIS and TIES partnered to develop the Tapestry Project. In 2024, the Tapestry Project worked to weave together community outreach, awareness-raising, systems navigation, and capacity building to increase access to mental health supports for newcomers in Calgary.
