Welcoming Walks

THPRD’s Welcoming Walks during Welcoming Week are made possible in partnership with community groups and partners. They are walks to celebrate newcomers and have place making events with long-time residents, while we explore parks, and natural spaces. This event celebrates the power of making new connections, getting to know your neighbors, and sharing our immigration stories to create welcoming spaces that belong to everyone.
