Support for Ukrainians

Durham Region has done a lot to support Ukrainian refugees coming into the community. However, there is still more to be done to help those in need. Here is Brendan Robins on how Durham can continue to support Ukraine and local Ukrainians.

Connections

For those new to Canada, the process of making connections to the larger community here can be difficult. Chris Schnedler spoke to representatives of the Ukrainian-Canadian community about these changes.

Food Drive

The Ukrainian Christmas event on December 18th will include gifts for children and a food drive for adults.

Christmas

Many Ukrainian refugees are preparing to navigate the Christmas season in a place they are not used to calling home. Clearly, there is a need for help in the community of Durham. Noah Kroeker had the chance to speak with Rachel Rohovska and Maria Pitolia to gain insight during the Voices in Durham event.

Streeters

To assist Ukrainian refugees who are immigrating to Canada, Canadians have helped raise almost $100,000 strictly dedicated to newcomers and helping them settle into the new atmosphere. Ganga Rajesh brings us the story.

Holidays

For some Ukrainians, this is the first Christmas they will be spending in Canada, after having to flee their home country. Jaelyn Mosher takes a look at holiday traditions, and how Ukrainian refugees will be spending Christmas.

Anti-Racism

A new anti-racism program has been introduced by the Durham Region Unemployed Help Centre ... focusing on anti-racism in the workplace. Matthew Mountjoy gives us the inside detail.

Rainbow Crosswalk

In addition to flags, crosswalks are an effective way of expressing inclusivity and diversity in the 2SLGBTQ+ plus youth community. Branden Rushton interviewed Emily Allison about the rainbow crosswalk in Bowmanville, its creation and the results of this event.

Youth Pride

Maxim Kryukov works with Youth Pride Durham to create safe spaces. Aidan Barrette has more.

ASL Interpreters

For roughly every 5,000 deaf people in Canada, there is one ASL interpreter. This is affecting communication with the deaf community. Andre Spence looked into this issue, and found some surprising information.

Durham Food Pantry

The Durham Community Action Group helps the community by hosting charitable events like a monthly food pantry and winter coat drive. Stephanie Readman spoke with Gloria Small.
