Welcome Cultural Services Welcome! Welcome Cultural Services has been providing services to assist the settlement of migrants in Tasmania since 1982.

Originally known as Migrant Resource Centre Northern Tasmania Inc. (MRCN), Welcome Cultural Services (Welcome) is a not-for-profit organisation dedicated to supporting culturally and linguistically diverse (CaLD) communities in northern Tasmania. Established in 1982 to address the unique challenges faced by newcomers to the area, Welcome offers a range of services aimed at promoting social inclusion, cultural diversity, and community cohesion. One of the primary objectives of Welcome is to provide practical assistance and guidance to multicultural communities as they settle in Tasmania. This support may include help with language acquisition, employment opportunities, housing, education, and accessing essential services. Additionally, Welcome serves as a hub for community engagement and networking, offering cultural events, workshops, and information sessions to foster cross-cultural understanding and integration. Welcome advocates alongside communities, working closely with local government agencies, businesses, and other organisations to address systemic barriers and promote equal opportunities for all residents. Through a collaborative approach and commitment to diversity and inclusion, Welcome plays a vital role in enriching the social fabric of Northern Tasmania and ensuring that all people feel welcomed and supported in their new home.

Our recent Welcome Conversations evening brought together community cultural representatives from across the North West for connection, conversation and shared ideas. We were delighted and grateful to welcome Roger Jaensch MP, Minister for Community and Multicultural Affairs, to learn more about his role and share perspectives on the opportunities, challenges and priorities facing diverse communities. Thank you to everyone who contributed to the discussion. We look forward to hosting another Welcome Conversations opportunity in the coming months. With thanks to Central Coast Council for their support of this event.
