2 Helping People Reach their Goals About PMC Peel Multicultural Council (PMC) was established in 1977 because of the concerns arising from a Social Planning Council report on Immigrant Needs in Peel. PMC is a non-profit and charitable organization that promotes a harmonious multicultural society and its key service pillars consist of Settlement and Integration of newcomers to Canada, Neighborhood Development, Health and Wellness, Education & Training and Employment Support. Members were originally recruited solely from ethnic organizations, but it soon became evident that the Council would be strengthened by the involvement of any interested individuals and institutions, which serve this culturally diverse community. A Board of Directors, elected from among its members, governs the Council. PMC s Vision and Mission VISION: MISSION: VALUES: To promote a harmonious multicultural society.

3 Guest Speaker: Abirami Kirubajan As the daughter of Sri Lankan immigrants who grew up during the Civil War in the 1980s, Abirami Kirubarajan is sensitive to the needs of refugees trying to make their way in a new world. Spurred to make a difference in the lives of fellow immigrants, she started volunteering at the Peel Multicultural Council in Mississauga. Abirami is among L Oréal Paris top 10 inspirational Canadian women, who was honoured with the L Oréal Paris Abirami Kirubajan Woman of Worth award at a ceremony in Toronto on Wednesday, March 8. She received this award for improving lives of others in the community. Each recipient also receive a $10,000 charitable grant under L Oréal Paris Canadian Women of Worth program. Abirami has chosen the Peel Multicultural Council as her charity of choice for this charitable grant. I immediately saw a huge gap with the young people coming to us, she says. I'd see young immigrants and refugees feeling a real clash between their parents' identity, their own previous culture and the reality of living in Canada and speaking a different language. Abi proposed starting a youth group now known as Multicultural Youth CAN (MYC). Passionate about the mission, Abi has led the charge of that youth group, implementing programs and events, coordinating volunteer efforts and forging new ground with partner organizations, all the while going to school full time, maintaining a 4.0 GPA, running two other youth organizations and working part time. This youth-led peer support group connects 13 to 23-year-olds to services, community and their new culture. The chance to be among peers and access tutoring, English conversation circles, conferences, job search, and art therapy sessions has aided some 700 youth in their transition to Canada so far. She created a safe and welcoming physical and emotional space for these young people at a time when they needed it the most. She helps to fill the overwhelming gap between young immigrants and refugees feeling a real clash with their parents' identity, their own previous culture, and the reality of living in Canada and speaking a different language.
