Fraser Valley Refugee Readiness Team (Archway)

Monika was born into a family with a refugee background and experienced the joys and challenges of growing up in a host-country, and later immigrating to Canada. As a result, Monika learned to appreciate and celebrate people’s diverse cultural differences from an early age. Since 2019, she has been working with Archway Community Services, first as a Youth Worker and then as Program Coordinator, to support and help immigrants and newcomers to Canada thrive in their new home.
