Bloom is a wellness initiative by Amal Unite & Empower, made possible through the support of IRCC, the North Pine Foundation, and the Department JIG (Jobs, Immigration and Growth).
It supports the emotional well-being, social connection, and sense of belonging for newcomers building their lives in Newfoundland and Labrador.
We know that starting over in a new place takes more than a job. It takes resilience, community, and moments to recharge. That’s why Bloom offers inclusive, professionally resourced wellness programming.
