SUMMARY:Building an Effective PSR Settlement Plan (Webinar for PSR sponsors)
DESCRIPTION:This online training session for sponsors in the Private Sponsorship of Refugees (PSR) program will walk you through how to plan support for newcomers over the full sponsorship year — not just the first few weeks after arrival. \nWe’ll break things down into the following phases:\n-What to focus on during the first few weeks \n-How to shift your support in months 7–9 to build independence \n-Planning for the transition period (the end of the sponsorship) in months 10–12 \nWe’ll also talk about how to share responsibilities as a group and how to stay flexible as needs change. This training session is great for new PSR sponsorship groups or anyone looking to refresh their approach! \n  \nRegister Here
