A Partnership for Newcomer Youth, Belonging and Community
Stronger Together Hockey and COSTI working together to build pathways beyond the classroom.
Stronger Together Hockey is proud to announce a partnership with COSTI Immigrant Services focused on building stronger pathways for newcomer and underserved youth.
For decades, COSTI has supported newcomers, refugees, and immigrant families as they build new lives in Canada helping connect people to settlement services, community supports, family resources, youth programming, wellness connections, and pathways to opportunity.
Stronger Together Hockey begins in schools, using conversations, connection, and community inspired by hockey in its many forms to help students feel seen, included, active, and able to contribute.
Together, COSTI and Stronger Together Hockey are working to connect early school engagement with trusted next steps beyond the classroom, including newcomer youth supports, family and settlement pathways, mentorship, wellness resources, and broader community participation.
This partnership reflects a shared belief: young people need more than one moment of encouragement. They need trusted pathways, welcoming communities, and people who help them see what is possible.
Stronger Students. Stronger Schools. Stronger Communities.
We are grateful to COSTI for its leadership, experience, and commitment to newcomer families and communities, and we look forward to building this work together.
