Cape Breton Welcome Network
The Cape Breton Welcome Network is a constellation of local volunteers and Welcome Groups who are eager to share their passion for Unama’ki – Cape Breton with newcomers.
If you are new to Cape Breton – or if you’d like to help welcome those who are – the Welcome Network is a great place to start.
About the Cape Breton Welcome Network
Launched in 2020, the Cape Breton Welcome Network is designed to support Cape Breton communities do one of the things they do best: welcome. The Network is comprised of a growing number of enthusiastic community volunteers. These volunteer “Welcomers” are people who have a welcoming spirit, are open-minded and respectful of diverse cultural backgrounds, passionate and knowledgeable about their communities and eager to share with newcomers all the great local activities and hidden gems.
The welcoming activities across the island vary and are customized to best suit each community, volunteer and newcomer.
Stay Tuned!
The Cape Breton Welcome Network program is currently undergoing a few changes to best accommodate the Welcomers and newcomers across the Island. Thank you for your patience as we make these necessary changes.
