The Metro Vancouver Refugee Readiness Team (MVRRT) is focused on preparing the region for an increased influx of refugees, particularly from Afghanistan and Ukraine. Between 2022 and 2024, the initiative helps communities in Metro Vancouver develop capacity in key areas like housing, employment, and community services to support new arrivals. The program is supported by the Government of BC and encourages community involvement.

The MVRRT resource documents page offers important guides to support refugee resettlement in Metro Vancouver. Available resources cover housing, healthcare, school enrollment, and community integration, with newsletters providing updates on refugee support efforts. These documents help organizations and individuals better serve newcomers and build welcoming communities. For more details, visit MVRRT Resource Documents.
